The bad news is that Adam Wilson has moved to Africa. The good news though, is that he’s on international duty with the Kenya national team, and will be returning to Park Hall in due course.

The winger, who is currently on loan from Bradford City, first came to the attention of the Harambee Stars earlier this year, when Engin Firat selected him for the 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers against Burundi and Ivory Coast, although Wilson didn’t make an appearance at that time.

Obviously continuing to impress the Istanbul-born Firat – who has also managed the Moldova national side – Wilson has now received a second call-up, ahead of the Africa Cup Of Nations (AFCON) 2025 double-header against Cameroon.

The games will be played on October 11 (in Cameroon) and 14 (behind-closed-doors in Uganda), as Kenya looks to qualify for next year’s AFCON finals that are being held in Morocco.

Kenya and Cameroon both have four points from two games in Group J, with Zimbabwe on two points and Namibia yet to get off the mark. The top two qualify.

Speaking to club media this evening, Adam Wilson told us:

“I’ve been called up to Kenya’s international team and it’s honestly an honour.

” Hopefully, I can take part in the next few games and help the team towards AFCON qualification!

” I’m excited for this opportunity.”

In addition, as part of an interview with our head coach, Craig Harrison, we asked him about Wilson’s call to international duty and you can watch that below.
