As the 2024/25 Premier League season draws to a close, Yanga already have a ticket to participate in the 2025/26 CAF Champions League
With 70 points at the top of the league standings, Yanga have ensured themselves of finishing the season in the top two positions and thus automatically securing a ticket to participate in the tournament
Yanga's Media and Communications Manager Ali Kamwe has revealed that after what happened this season, they have started the process of improving the squad early to ensure that next season they have a better team that will perform better
Kamwe said the first step is for the leadership to work on the technical bench's recommendations by extending contracts for players whose contracts are coming to an end but are in Mwalimu's plans
But scouts are also already in the market looking for new players to be signed
"We have started improving our team for next season, the first improvements are to retain stars "We have according to the coach's report, those who want to leave, we will look at who to remove in the interests of the club, but the main goal is to build a team for next season because we already have a ticket to participate in the Champions League"
"You must start looking for many of the best players early, if a player is free, it means his contract is about to expire and the one with a contract, negotiations with his club begin during this period," said Kamwe
After two seasons of playing in the CAF CC final and the CAF CL quarter-finals, this season Yanga ended up in the group stage
