Defending champions KCCA FC have shown a number of players the exit door at Lugogo ahead of the new StarTimes Uganda Premier League.
The Kasasiro boys on Saturday confirmed the permanent release of Musa Esenu, Muwadda Mawejje, and Isaac Kirabira over for being below par.
The 13- time Uganda Premier League champions explained that Kirabira who played only four games last season despite being injury-free has opted not to renew his contract that expired at the end of the season.
“We thank them for the time at the club and wish them the best in their future endeavors,” KCCA FC head coach Mike Mutebi said of the trio released from Lugogo.
Quartet loaned
The Lugogo based outfit has also sent four players on loan to various Uganda Premier League clubs.
Former SC Villa captain Bernard Muwanga(Proline), goalkeepers Hassan Matovu(Proline), Tom Ikara(Mbarara City) and defender Walter Ochora(Bul FC) have been sent for a season-long loan before returning to Lugogo.
“The loan period should be one where the players reflect and work on a few things. This does not mean they are leaving but rather should use the period to gain playing time and come back stronger than before. We have sent them to clubs where we feel they can continue growing,” Mutebi said of the quartet.
