Uganda Cranes to play Kenya in friendly

 

 

 

 

 

Mubiru named a 25 man squad for the international friendly that will help both countries prepare for international engagements.

 

The buildup will also prepare some of the players for the two-legged 2020 CHAN Qualifiers against Burundi and the 2021 AFCON campaign that starts in November when Uganda Cranes takes on Burkina Faso and Malawi.

 

The squad includes some of the players that were part of the national side that featured in the 2019 AFCON Finals in Egypt while others are local-based players. 

 

The local players will train on Thursday morning at the StarTimes Stadium before flying out the same day later in the evening while the foreign-based stars will connect from their clubs direct to Kenya.

 

Vipers striker Fahad Bayo who has been one of the few players in form is also part of the team.
