Bbakka, Katuba arrive to boost Uganda squad in Dubai

Uganda’s Dubai training camp has been boosted by the arrival of foreign-based duo Alexis Bbakka and Alex Kakuba.

The Cranes are in the Middle East for a week-long training session ahead of the November double-header against South Sudan in the African Cup of Nations qualifiers.

Bbakka of Umea FC and CD Cova Piedade’s Kakuba are expected to boost the team that is already missing captain Denis Onyango of Mamelodi Sundowns and Smouha SC's Derrick Nsibambi.
