Moses Shumah (born 2002) is a Kenyan professional footballer who plays as a centre forward for Zambian Premier League club Power Dynamos [1] and Kenya. [2]
Shumah joined Homeboyz in November 2022 and went on to grow in stature under a number of coaches to finally become the Golden boot winner at the end of the 2024-25 Kenyan Premier League season with 17 goals. [3]
He made a swift move thereafter to Zambian side Power Dynamos at a time Kenya's national team coach Benni McCarthy had named him to the Kenya team to lead his attack during the upcoming 2024 African Nations Championship that kicks off across East Africa in August 2025. [4] The move away from the Kenyan league renders him ineligible for the tournament.
Shumah made his Kenya national team debut in June 2023, scoring on debut in a 1–0 win over Pakistan in a four-nation tournament in Mauritius. [5]
Shumah is known for strong hold-up play, intelligent off-ball movement, high pressing, and clinical finishing—with only one penalty in his 17-goal campaign in the 2024-25 Kenyan Premier League season. At some point he had a 96% passing accuracy, frequently occupying defenders to create space, and to win aerial duels. [6]
