Nairobi City Stars and FC Talanta have officially been relegated from the Kenya Premier League top flight following the completion of the 2024/25 season on Sunday.

The two sides knew that only three points would do for them if they were to retain their places in the top flight for next season but they both failed to secure the mark, earning the dreaded drop to the second-tier National Super League.

City Stars could only manage a 0-0 draw with Mathare United, while Talanta lost 1-0 to Murang'a Seal, with their relegation decided at San Sebastian Stadium.

Bidco United, who began the day bottom of the log, secured safety with a 2-1 success over Sofapaka as they finished on 35 points.

City Stars, Talanta, Posta Rangers all finished on 35 points, but their goal differences varied, sending City Stars and Talanta down.

Posta Rangers, on the other hand, earned a point against Bandari in Mombasa to escape outright relegation. They will take on Naivas FC in a playoff to determine who makes it to the KPL next season.

Already, Nairobi United and APS Bomet have booked their spots in the top flight thanks to finishing first and second, respectively in the National Super League.
