Uganda Hippos (U20) camp has been boosted by the arrival of Greece based midfielder Isma Mugulusi.
The Makedonikos FC player, who is also skipper of the Hippos, jetted into the country in the wee hours of Saturday and headed straight to the team camp at the Cranes Paradise Hotel, Kisaasi.
He didn’t take part in the Saturday morning session due to jet lag and expressed readiness for the task ahead.
“I am happy to join camp and I am ready to lead my nation to the World Cup. We are aware it won’t be easy as many nations now see us as a strong side but we shall give in all to ensure to achieve what we set and that is going to the World Cup.”
He told FUFA Media.
Ivan Irinimbabazi (currently in Scotland) and Ibrahim Juma (Leganes CD, Spain) are the other players expected to join the team.
The tournament will take place between 19th February to 11th March in Egypt with The Hippos pitted in Group B along Congo Brazaville, Central African Republic and South Sudan.
