Tom Juma (born 23 September 1976) is a Kenyan footballer. He played in 38 matches for the Kenya national football team from 1995 to 2005.[2] He was a part of the team that famously upset Algeria 3–1 during 1998 FIFA World Cup qualification,[1] and was also named in Kenya's squad for the 2004 African Cup of Nations tournament.[3]

At the club level he was named player of the year in Kenya in 2001, prompting a move to Sweden.[4]

Coaching career

He began his head coaching career at second-tier Kenyan side Administration Police in 2012.[1] After two stints as interim head coach at Muhoroni Youth early in the 2016 season,[5] he was finally given the permanent job in October of that year.[6] The following year he joined A.F.C. Leopards as an assistant, but finished the year as caretaker after manager Dorian Marin was sacked.[7]
