"We believe to get a conclusive response on Malinga’s transfer before the end of next week,” added Owour.
Malinga is one of the top basketball players needed by the military side to beef up their side ahead of their busy schedule this season.
Malinga was a four-time champion with Falcons before moving to Warriors at the start of last season.

APR who finished second last year behind KCB has great ambitions this year. According to Owour, they want to lift the regional title which will qualify them to compete in the Africa club championship were they will be gunning for top honours.
