Rachier told the Daily Nation McKinstry, 37, had done a good job in steering K’Ogalo to the 2022/23 Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKF-PL) title despite facing several off field challenges.
These included financial issues and being forced to operate with a lean squad of 18 players for the better part of the season, owing to the two-year Fifa transfer ban on the club thanks to dues owed to some of its former players.
Some called for the sacking of the former Uganda Cranes coach. Rachier said that even though McKinstry is assured of his place at the club next season, they intend to have a meeting with him over areas they believe he is not getting right.
“He will be at the club next season. He has done his best because when he came, we did not have a credible team but he has made it up,” said Rachier.
“We need to reinforce our team and have a serious chat with him on whatever we think he is not doing right. We will have an honest talk with him.”
Speaking on NTV’s Monday night live sports show, SportOn!, McKinstry said it is “a fantastic feeling” for him to have guided the team to victory on his first attempt.
