Moses Basena and Fred Kajoba were coaching the Uganda men’s national team in World Cup qualifying last summer, but that appointment was on an interim basis and the Federation of Ugandan Football Associations (FUFA) hired Sebastien Desabre as the national team head coach in December.
Interim appointments aside, there hasn’t been a Ugandan in charge of the Uganda Cranes for more than a decade, but Basena made the shortlist for the full-time job last year and perhaps he or Kajoba will be among the candidates whenever Desabre’s tenure comes to an end.
