Solution:
Do a version on your ansible.

ansible version

Then edit the kubespray-x.xx.x/ansible_version.yml file to.

  vars:
    minimal_ansible_version: 2.9.0
    minimal_ansible_version_2_10: 2.10.11
    maximal_ansible_version: 2.16.0
    ansible_connection: local

Make sure the maximal_ansible_version is greater than your running version.
