Sierra Leone’s reigning Champions have named their 25-player squad ahead of the debut season in the continental stage.
Five of the new signings have been included in the squad as published on the club’s official Facebook page.
The PK Boys will kick off their CAF Champions League campaign on Saturday against ninth-time Algerian title holders CR Belouizdad at the Liberia capital Monrovia.
Kick-off at the Samuel Kanyon Doe Sports Complex is 4 pm in the first leg preliminary.
New signings Suffian Kalokoh, Abu Bakarr Kalokoh, Alhassan Daramy , Joseph Cole and Abass Kamara have all been included.
The squad is presently in Liberia ahead of their first training as they look ahead to a tough contest.
The aggregate winner of CR Belouizdad and Rangers over two legs will face the winner between Deportivo Mongomo Equatorial Guinean football club and Djoliba Athletic Club Malian football in the second round in October.
It is a fresh start on the continental stage for the Southern Province club as they begin their continental journey.
They won the Sierra Leone topflight for the first time in 68 years to be bookmarked as the second team outside the capital Freetown to win the Sierra Leone Premier League after Diamond Stars won it in 2012 and 2013.
Clubs that received a bye to Second Preliminary Round
Al Ahly (Egypt), Esperance (Tunisia), Mamelodi Sundowns (South Africa), Raja Club Athletic (Morocco), TP Mazembe (DR Congo), and Wydad Athletic Club (Morocco).
