Head Coach of the Tanzania National Team 'Taifa Stars' Kim Poulsen yesterday explained the reason not including Simba striker Kibu Denis in his squad for next month's World Cup qualifier against Benin
Poulsen said Kibu still faces challenges regarding his citizenship
Perhaps this is also the reason why Kibu did not feature in the Community Shield game against Yanga last weekend
Simba has signed Kibu as a local player however there are still things that need to be put in place before he can start using him as a Tanzanian
Recently in an interview with Azam TV, Crescentius Magori, Advisor to Chairman of the Board of Directors, said that they believe Kibu issue will be resolved soon so that the player can start working
Last season Kibu served Mbeya City as a local player, getting all the permits from TFF and even being called up to the National team in a friendly match against Malawi
Issues about his citizenship have been raised after he was signed by Simba
