TRANSFERS Mustafa Kizza Rejoins KCCA FC
The emotionally charged video concludes with Kizza's poignant words, "Amidst the wanderlust that filled my lust, there was always one truth.”
Traguil is troubled by the lack of creative options in his wings but hopes Kizza will be the solution.
“Kizza can give us that offensive [options] that we need from the left side with crosses,” the coach noted.
Kizza left KCCA FC in August 2020 to join Montreal Impact in Major League Soccer in the USA before crossing to Arouca in Portugal in July last year. He returned to the Kasasiro Boys earlier in the year for a short stint. He was unveiled last week officially as he announced his third stint.
However, the defender-cum-winger was not utilised in their league opener as Traguil deployed Herbert Achai in the left-back position against BUL but the youngster didn’t exploit the chance to the fullest.

FOOTBALL Nyago warns referee Kimboowa: “We shall not allow you to officiate Busoga United matches”
The tough-speaking Nyago was reacting to the FUFA Super League Limited board’s report for last season, where Busoga United was singled out for hooliganism.
“It’s not that the others are not doing well; Achai had a good game but sometimes made mistakes but like I said, Kizza will bring more quality for sure,” he explained.
The Portuguese also welcomed Emmanuel Loki to his roster with the hope that the former Soltilo Bright Stars forward will add more firepower upfront.
