FUFA would like to clarify on misleading media reports regarding the coaching staff of the National Under -23 football team. It is not true as reported in various media houses that the federation announced Frank Anyau and Phillip Obwin as assistants to Head coach Milutin Sredojevic for the U-23 side.
During the weekly FUFA Press conference the FUFA Technical committee chairman Mr. Hamid Juma clearly stated that Sredojevic would work hand in hand with the committee where Anyau and Obwin are members. Their role is purely administrative. William Nkemba and Paul Ssali are the other members of the committee. Mr. Faisal Muhammad is the team coordinator.
George Semwogerere (Somalia Football team) and Abdallah Mubiru (KCC FC) are still part of the U-23 coaching staff but will be engaged at the same time when the National team is preparing for the matches against Mozambique.
Also at the same press conference on Wednesday the FUFA CEO Mr. Edgar Watson announced that the FUFA Executive had stayed their decision regarding changes for various national teams until after the coaching courses in Njeru are concluded with the federation being in position to further information on this matter.
FUFA believes that this communication will give a proper clarification on the matter to the football fraternity.
Meanwhile the training session of the U-23 team starts tomorrow at Villa Park, Nsambya at 10am.
