ROME - Fears are growing for Ugandan-born midfielder Savio Nsereko who has been missing for a week.

A spokesman for his club, Juve Stabia in the Italian Serie B, said on Thursday that Nsereko disappeared after one match.

Stabia confirmed to AFP that they have informed the Police as the 22-year-old has not been seen for a week.

“His mother and sister are very worried, so are we. We hope to find him,” he said.

The last trace of Nsereko was when he sent coach Piero Braglia a text message.

This is not the first time Nsereko, who is on loan from Florentina, has gone missing.

He also went missing for a week while on loan at German second division side TSV 1860 Munich last season, leading to the termination of his loan agreement.

He was later found at his sister’s home.
Although born in Uganda, Nsereko came up through the youth ranks in Germany with 1860 Munich and has represented the European nation at under-19 levels.

He started his senior professional career with Brescia in Italy after being signed on as a 16-year-old.
