Just 24 hours after the Confederation of African Football (CAF) announced a revised draw for the 2025 U20 Africa Cup of Nations, Kenya’s head coach Salim Babu has named a formidable squad to represent the country, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The Rising Stars have been drawn into a challenging group alongside Nigeria's Flying Eagles, Tunisia, and hosts Morocco.

Following a training camp in Morocco featuring 35 players, Coach Babu has now trimmed the squad down to the official list.

Notably, established names such as Aldrine Kibet and Amos Wanjala have made the final cut.
