Arap Uria caught the eye of football fans after his videos mimicking Premier League commentator Peter Drury went viral.
On Thursday night, he shared a short video of himself with Chelsea stars Marc Cucurella, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, and Levi Colwill having some fun.
He taught the trio a Kalenjin word, 'Achamin', meaning 'I love you', and a popular Swahili saying, "Hakuna Matata, meaning no worries.
Arap Uria then pulled off Achraf Hakimi's popular penguin celebration, before sharing a laugh.
Cucurella did the celebration in Chelsea's clash against Legia Warsaw in the UEFA Conference League.
Kiptoo also shared another video on Instagram, standing in the goal attempting to save Cucurella's penalty, but he failed. He jokingly told the Blues defender to win on Saturday against Everton.
In his latest post, he said he was on his way to meet the GOAT. Since he is in London, Kipchoge could be the GOAT he's looking for.
The Kenyan legend will run in the London Marathon on Sunday. A fifth title will be on his mind.
Uria hails from Elgeyo Marakwet county and decided to do content creation instead of becoming a teacher.
He began by lip-syncing popular personalities, but his videos of Peter Drury really saw him soar.
He was invited to SuperSport to discuss his work and even got a message from Drury himself. He finally met him in 2022.

Drury sent him a message when he was trying to link up with the legendary commentator.
"I really wish I could be with you today. It's so frustrating - the week you're on, here I am, over in Doha for the World Cup draw. Listen, I love what you do. I hope you're laughing with me and not at me! I must say, I am certainly laughing with you, it's terrifically funny, it's superb," via Express Sports.
Uria is a Chelsea fan, and it is evident on his Instagram page.
In a related report, Arap Uria was blasted on social media after posting a picture with a goat he intended to gift Peter Drury.
Netizens were not impressed with the post. They called him out, accusing him of being a "clout-chaser."
The creator rubbished the criticism, saying it is motivation to keep going. He added that he never responds to negative feedback.
