Wakiso Giants FC Statement
The dreadlocked left-back signs as a free agent after the completion of his contract at Proline Football Club.
Earlier, Proline had loaned him to Masavu Football Club during the 2017-18 season.
Born and bred at the lakeside Bugonga village in Entebbe Municipality, Namwanja has previously played at Vipers Sports Club, Proline FC, Masavu FC and had a brief stint with Kenyan outfit Wazito Football Club.
Last week, Vipers club president Lawrence Mulindwa had expressed interest in signing him back but Namwanja was deeply engaged in talks with Wakiso Giants after a long spell of training with the side.
Other Wakiso Giants signings:
Namwanja becomes the 7th signing of the club following the capture of former Ndejje University goalkeeper Derrick Emukule, Aggrey Madoi, Ivan Sebuguzi, Hassan Senyonjo, Duncan Seninde, and Muwadda Mawejje.
Namwanja and the rest of the Wakiso Giants players will play KCCA in a Pilsner Super 8 contest at their Wakisha fortress next Tuesday.
