Johnathan McKinstry has been appointed the head coach of Uganda on a three-year contract.
The 34-year-old Northern Irish coach arrives in Uganda to replace Sebastien Desabre, who quit the side after the Africa Cup of Nations finals staged in Egypt.
The new coach was unveiled on Monday at the Fufa’s headquarters in Mengo. The former Rwandan coach has promised to build a strong Ugandan side as he takes over the reins.
“I am excited about getting this job. This job is one of the top jobs in African football today,” McKinstry told reporters after being unveiled.
