Wikipedia - F.C. Talanta
Football Club Talanta, also known as FC Talanta, is a Kenyan professional football club based in Nairobi, incorporated in July 2012. They currently compete in the Kenyan National Premier League, highest division of the Kenyan football league system.
History
Early days and formation
The talent development pilot programme was initiated in Guinea, Côte d'Ivoire, Niger and Kenya. In Kenya, the first phase was started in 2010 at the Kasarani Stadium and was launched by the then Minister of Sports and Youth Affairs Hellen Sambili. Since then, they have moved to their current location in Karen and, in conjunction with UNICEF, the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports is working hard to get the team a permanent home ground. Talanta team members were chosen from the Safaricom Sakata tournament and were graduates of the academy.
2012 FKF President's Cup
The Football Kenya Federation (FKF) confirmed on 26 July 2012 that 32 teams registered for the 2012 FKF President's Cup after paying the mandatory KSh.15,000/= entry fee.
The club's campaign began in the second round, against Tetu Stars. The match, played on 12 August 2012, ended in a 2–0 victory for Talanta, through goals from George Nzenze and Patrick Muchiri. They met FKF Division One side Nzoia United in the third round on 2 September 2012. An own goal from James Ndara and another goal from Hassan Abdulrahman helped the side cause one of the biggest upsets of the tournament at that stage. However, Talanta could not advance from the quarter-finals after suffering a 2–0 defeat to defending Kenyan Premier League champions Tusker, who had beaten Garissa County League side Wamo 13–0 in the previous round. The goals were scored by David Nyanzi and Joseph Emeka.
The team's colors are red and white, and their home matches are played at the Camp Toyoyo Stadium in Nairobi. FC Talanta competes in the Kenyan National Super League, the second tier of professional soccer in Kenya, and has ambitions of earning promotion to the top-flight Kenyan Premier League.
FC Talanta is known for its commitment to developing young talent and providing opportunities for local players to showcase their skills on a professional stage. The team has a dedicated coaching staff and training facilities to help players reach their full potential.
Overall, FC Talanta is a dynamic and exciting team to watch, with a bright future ahead as they continue to grow and compete at the highest levels of Kenyan soccer.
