Meet the New Kenya Police FC Coach: Dusan Stojanovic’s Vision for the Champions

Kenya Police FC are back in the spotlight, but this time, it’s not just about winning titles—it’s about vision, ambition, and a new chapter. The club has announced its new Kenya Police FC coach, Serbian tactician Dusan Stojanovic, who takes over after a remarkable 2024/25 season. Fans are buzzing, questions are flying, and everyone wants to know: what’s next for the reigning champions?

Key takeaways:

  • Dusan Stojanovic replaces Etienne Ndayiragije as head coach.
  • His main goal: defend the league title and compete strongly in African competitions.
  • Stojanovic brings international experience, including success in Uganda and a UEFA A coaching licence.

Why the Coaching Change Happened

Kenya Police FC made history by winning their first league title in 2024/25. However, their dream run in continental competitions ended early—they were knocked out by Al Hilal Omdurman in the CAF Champions League preliminary round.

Following this exit, Etienne Ndayiragije parted ways with the club by mutual agreement. The team needed a fresh perspective, and Dusan Stojanovic was brought in to elevate the squad not just in Kenya, but across Africa.

At 44, Stojanovic has gathered valuable coaching experience in Europe and Africa. He holds a UEFA A Licence and has worked with some top clubs, including:

In his first press briefing, Stojanovic said:

“It was the project, where we are now and where we want to be, and that is to be at the top of the continent.”

He emphasized teamwork, discipline, and a relentless work ethic—values he believes are essential for the next stage of Kenya Police FC’s journey.


What This Means for Kenya Police FC

On the Field

Expect a team with sharper tactics and more structure. Stojanovic has highlighted the need for a more potent attack and a disciplined defense, which could make Police FC a tougher side in both domestic and continental competitions.
