Lonyesi: Tooro United line-up ex-Kansai Plascon coach to replace Kisekka

Tooro United have opened talks to hire Angelo Lonyesi as club head coach until the end of the season.

The move comes after the struggling Uganda Premier League side fired the entire technical bench led by coach Muhammed Kisekka and Samuel Nzanziro owing to unsatisfactory performances and unnecessary utterances in the media.

According to Kawowo Sports, Lonyesi, who has been unemployed since being released by Fufa Big League side Kansai Plascon, has closely been monitoring the club’s progress before the league took a break owing to the coronavirus fears.

Tooro United is currently bottom placed with 22 points off 25 games with five games to the end of the season.
