Speaking of the brightest players in Yanga's squad this past season, you will not miss the name of Kibwana Shomari
The youngstar defender who was signed by Wananchi from Mtibwa Sugar club, has made Yanga fans forget veteran Juma Abdul very quickly
Yes! Abdul was the spirit of Yanga on the right side for about four seasons before boycotting the contract he was given towards the 2020/21 season
And that's when Kibwana was brought in his place, one season is enough to show off his talent
He is only 20 years old, but he has been a key pillar of the defense on the right side
Kibwana played the most minutes in Yanga's squad this season
He has shone in the most competitive matches against Simba to be able to handle the stars that the team relies on
He is definitely the player who deserves the best young player award in the VPL awards this season
Next season he is expected to fight in his place against Shabani Djuma landing from AS Vita
Djuma is an experienced player, no doubt his arrival will strengthen Kibwana
But the best thing is that Djuma can also play as a winger, so Kibwana will still be sure of enough time in the squad
