West Nile based Uganda Premier League entity Onudparaka Football Club has optimally utilized the January 2021 transfer window.
Christened as the “Catarpillars”, Onduparaka has signed over 9 players in the break to reinforce their squad as the first round of the 2020-21 Uganda Premier League resumes.
Goalkeeper Tonny Kyamera, striker Muhammed Kyaliime, midfielder Muzamiru Nasser, central defender Yakubu Ramadhan, left back Hakim Magombe, David Owundo, Ali “Okocha” Mukiibi, Naijib Gwaibu are some of the players added to the team roster.
Kyamera has been a free agent after he was released by UPDF in the same January window.

He joins the goalkeeping department that also has Steven Kagiri and Austin Opoka.
The additions in the various departments are intended to beef up the team and prepare the side as the first round resumes.
In the five games played so far for Onduparaka in the 2020-21 season, the Catarpillars have recorded two draws and wins apiece as well as that infamous humiliating 7-0 away loss to Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) at the MTN Omondi Stadium, Lugogo, Kampala.

The betting firm also take the naming rights of the Onduparka home ground as AbaBet Green Light Stadium.
They join telecommunications giants MTN Uganda.
