Tusker midfielder Chrispine Erambo has earned a call-up to the Harambee Stars team currently in camp for the African Nations Championship games.

With only six days to the start of the continental games, the combative midfielder has earned his call-up as Benni McCarthy’s charges step up preparations for the biennial tournament.

“Congratulations to our midfield dynamo Chris Erambo on his late call-up to the Harambee Stars squad for the Africa Nations Championship (CHAN). Go shine. Rambo. It’s your time! Brewer’s message from X on Monday, July 28, 2025, read.

Erambo has been a regular face in the Kenya national team setup and was part of Charles Okere’s quartet that earned call-ups in March this year as Kenya stepped up preparations for the World Cup qualifiers.

Erambo joins Shabana FC attacking talent Brian Michira among the new call-ups to the Stars camp.
