Timothy Noor Ouma, popularly known as “Babu”, marked his official debut for Polish champions Lech Poznań in style, coming on at halftime during their emphatic 7-1 victory over Iceland’s Breiðablik in a UEFA Champions League second qualifying round clash on Tuesday night.
The 20-year-old Harambee Stars midfielder showcased maturity and composure beyond his years, calmly dictating play in midfield and proving he belongs on the big stage. His confident display adds to the growing list of young Kenyan talents making waves in Europe.
Ouma’s debut comes just weeks after Aldrine Kibet signed with Spanish La Liga side Celta Vigo, signaling a new chapter for Kenyan football. With the return leg set for July 30, Ouma will be hoping for more minutes as he continues to soar, proudly flying the Kenyan flag on Europe’s biggest platforms.
