- Total 2017 CAF Confederation Cup
- KCCA (Uganda) Vs FUS Rabat (Morocco) – Phillip Omondi stadium, Lugogo @ 4pm
Ibrahim Saddam Juma has received his Confederation of African Football (CAF) license to feature for KCCA the club has confirmed.
The midfielder joined from rivals Express FC in May but because the domestic window wasn’t open, he couldn’t feature for the league champions although they thought he was eligible for the continental competition.
Saddam has missed four group A games but is cleared in time for two fixtures – starting on Sunday July 2 against FUS Rabat at Lugogo and then an away tie against Club Africain of Tunisia a week later.
The midfielder says its good news and wants to repay the faith they have endured by waiting for his debut.
“That’s good news, I have been working so hard in training while I wait for my debut, it’s here now and I just want to show the KCCA FC fans what I can offer,” he told the club website.
No player wants to watch from the stands especially when you are fully fit and you have the belief you can play a part and help your team win.
Besides Saddam, another player in defender Peter Magambo aka Machete also got the license.
He is one of the two players coach Mike Mutebi submitted for the second window registration for CAF Confederation Cup.
Saddam and Magambo will don shirt numbers 6 and 21 respectively in the continental competition matches.
