Quarantined Namungo FC stars set for late return from Angola

Namungo FC players who had remained in Angola due to the coronavirus are set to jet back on Saturday or Monday after their second tests confirmed they are no longer infected.

The players were quarantined after testing positive on February 13 when they had travelled to Angola for a Caf Confederation Cup tie against Primeiro de Agosto. Khamis Faki, Fred Tangalu, Lucas Kikoti, and the club's Chief Executive Officer Omary Kaaya had to remain in Angola quarantined as the rest of the squad travelled back to Tanzania.

Hassan Zidadu, Namungo's chairman, confirmed the players and the official were set to be released after they returned negative tests.
