Football Kenya Federation president Hussein Mohammed has publicly addressed claims that he is running a secret operation to push McDonald Mariga out of his position, according to Pulse Sports.

The report does not detail the exact nature of the allegations against Hussein Mohammed, nor the specifics of his response, but confirms that the FKF boss has moved to address the claims directly rather than let them sit unanswered.

McDonald Mariga, the former Inter Milan midfielder turned football administrator, has been a prominent figure within Kenyan football governance in recent years. Any suggestion of a push to remove him lands at a sensitive time for an organisation that oversees the Harambee Stars and the running of the domestic league.

Flagside will follow this story as more detail emerges on the substance of the claims and Hussein Mohammed's full response.
