Nzoia Sugar chairman Evans Kadenge has dismissed reports that the team has been disbanded, saying they will soon appoint a new coach to take charge of the club.

Kadenge told Nation Sport on Wednesday the board of the Nzoia Sugar Company, the club's sponsors, will meet soon to name the coach who will replace Collins 'Korea' Omondi who was sacked in March.

Kadenge says the team has taken almost three months to name a new coach because the board has not met to sort out the issue due to the coronavirus pandemic.

It has taken time but we shall give the job to a qualified coach who can lead the team to success next season," added Kadenge.

KPL is yet to pronounce itself on the fate of this season even though it challenged Football Kenya Federation's (FKF) decision to prematurely end the league before the Sports Disputes Tribunal (SDT).
