Kelvin Injili Etemesi[1] is a Kenyan striker who turns out for Kenyan Premier League side Nairobi City Stars.[2]
Etemesi started out at WYSA in Kangemi before joining Kangemi All-Stars in the Kenyan third-tier league. He then made a big leap to join Kenyan Premier League side Nairobi City Stars for the 2022/23 season in August 2022.
He earned his top-flight debut on 19 November 2022 in Nyayo Stadium against Bidco United F.C.[3]
He scored a brace for his maiden top-flight goal on 29 March 2023 in Kasarani Annex in a 3–0 win over Mathare United. He went on to score three more braces against Posta Rangers F.C., Vihiga Bullets, and AFC Leopards.[4] [5] His latest brace came at a time he had gone for four games without a goal[6] [7] in the league.
His brace against AFC Leopards on 29 May 2023[8] [9] saw him become the first City Stars player to score four braces in a season[10] thereby surpassing Samuel Ouma's 17-year old record[11] set back in the 2005/6 season, of scoring three braces in a season.
He made it brace number five for the season on 20 June 2023 when he scored on either half in a 2-2 draw in Kasarani Annex against F.C. Talanta.[12]
