Cheruiyot says the prestigious World Athletics (WA) competition is one of his favourite and hopes that he will compete on home soil in the near future.

The Rabat leg of the elite competition is the only one held in Africa, with Kenya flirting with the possibility of hosting another one.

Thus far, the country has hosted the Kip Keino Classic a World Continental Tour Gold event, which is the second most prestigious competition on WA's calendar of one-day meets. Previously, Athletics Kenya (AK) Jack Tuwei has expressed Kenya's desires to host a Diamond League event albeit he concedes that that can only happen if one of the current legs in the series is dropped.

Cheruiyot was speaking in the aftermath of another podium finish in 2025, at the fourth leg of the Diamond League in Rabat on Sunday. Next, Cheruiyot plans to compete in the fifth leg of the competition in Rome on  June 6.
