Thomas Biketi (born 31 December 1983 in Kenya) is a Kenyan former footballer. He has plied his trade in a variety of countries- Kenya, Ethiopia, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Singapore. ^[2]

Nepal and Karuturi

Helping Jawalkhel Youth Club to a three-match winning streak in the Nepal National League, ^[3] Biketi's club descended to fourth place by the end of the season, accruing 16 points in total. ^[4] Alongside Gerald Mukonza, the defender was poised to join Karuturi Sports F.C. in January 2012 ^[5] but the transfer was delayed because Biketi was still competing for promotion in the play-offs for Jawalkhel Youth Club. ^[6] Ultimately, by late February, the Kenyan sealed the move, ^[7] making his debut in a 2–0 victory over Chemelil Sugar F.C. in which he was complimented by his coach. ^[8] Before his debut, Biketi was supposed to have adapted to the clubs style of play and environment. ^[9]
