The technical team now includes Mohammed Muchula as the first assistant coach, with Julius Mativo serving as the second assistant and youth team coach.
Former goalkeeper David Okello has been appointed as the goalkeeper coach, and Edwin Kibet will take on the role of match analyst/statistician.
The support staff also features Ambrose Oriko as the physiotherapist, Dismas Onyango as the trainer, Charles Ngugi as the assistant team manager/equipment manager, and Heskey Ndung’u as the kit manager.
In preparation for the new season, the club has made several key signings to enhance their squad. Striker Derrick Anami joins on a season-long deal from Naivas FC, bringing valuable experience to their attacking lineup.
He was Naivas’ second top scorer last season, with eight goals, and played a crucial role in their third-place finish. Anami is the elder brother of Harambee Starlets striker Gentrix Shikangwa.
Midfielder Brian Ouru, who also comes from Naivas, will make his Premier League debut with Mathare United. Ouru was instrumental in helping Naivas gain promotion to the NSL three seasons ago.
Additionally, Mathare United has signed Daniel Mukok Odhiambo from NSL side Mombasa Elite for the 2024/25 season, and experienced goalkeeper Michael Wanyika joins on a season-long deal from Ulinzi Stars.

- Derrick Anami (Striker, from Naivas FC)
