Former Yanga SC assistant coach and interim head coach Abdihamid Moalin has officially been appointed as the new head coach of FKF Premier League side Mombasa United for the 2026/27 season.
The appointment follows an agreement between both parties on the terms of his contract, with Mombasa United's management expressing strong confidence in the coaching philosophy and experience of the Somali-born, American coach.
Mombasa United has tasked Moalin with rebuilding the squad and transforming it into a competitive team capable of challenging both within Kenya's Coastal region and across the country.
Football fans in Kenya are expected to see significant tactical changes under Moalin, who is widely known for his possession-based, attacking style of play.
Moalin left Yanga after rejecting a role as assistant coach under the club's new technical bench, which is now led by head coach Manqoba Mngqithi.
