Bankers bankrupted in midfield as experienced talisman set for lengthy injury layoff

In a statement, the bankers confirmed the veteran’s long layoff, attributing it to their last match against FKF Premier League champions Gor Mahia.

“Captain Hemphrey (sic) Mieno is set for a long layoff as a scan revealed that the midfielder suffered a complete tear of his right anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) during our last league match against Gor Mahia,” the club said.

Mieno’s absence is a huge blow for Robert Matano’s side for who he provided a much-needed leadership across the board and a creative spark in the middle of the park.

The widely-travelled midfield magician joined the bankers at the start of last season, alongside Matano, with who he has worked at various other clubs, including Sofapaka and Tusker.

He won three league titles with the brewers (2016, 2020/21 and 2021/22) as well as with Gor Mahia in 2018.
