Coach Njogu parts ways with KCB RFC

Experienced tactician John Njogu has officially announced his departure from KCB Football Club, bringing to an end his stint with the club following the expiry of his contract on April 26, 2026.

Taking to social media shortly after his final assignment, Njogu shared a heartfelt message reflecting on his time with the bankers.

 “Today marked my last game at KCB Football Club, as my contract comes to an end. I wish the club all the best in the remaining matches and especially the FKF Cup. It was humbling to work in one of the best clubs in Kenya, the level of professionalism is amazing,” he posted.

Njogu joined KCB’s technical bench in June 2025 as a trainer under veteran head coach Robert Matano, contributing to the club’s tactical and physical development setup.

During his tenure, he earned praise for his professionalism and ability to blend modern training methods with local football dynamics.

In his farewell note, Njogu extended gratitude to the entire technical bench and playing unit, adding: “I thank the entire Club Management, my colleagues… I have really learnt and enjoyed working with all of you. The players are amazing and hardworking, I just wish them nothing but the very best.”

Before joining KCB, Njogu had a brief but notable spell at Murang'a Seal FC, where he served as head coach until March 2025. He has also previously handled Thika United F.C., further cementing his reputation as a seasoned tactician.

A CAF A licensed coach and FIFA/CAF instructor, Njogu is equally active beyond the touchline. He serves as the Member of County Assembly for Gitothua Ward in Kiambu County and remains influential in grassroots football through youth development and coach education.
