Magogo defends Fufa's proposed UPL changes

Federation of Uganda Football Associations (Fufa) president Moses Magogo has defended a raft of reforms attempting to alter the face of football in the country.

The changes, which if discussed, passed and adopted, will see teams in the Ugandan Premier League (UPL) reduce from the current 16 to 12.

Teams will also be required to own viable junior side, but the reforms have attracted enormous objections even before they are deliberated on.

Magogo has defended the proposals which also see the number of the second-tier teams changed to 16 while those in the reserve league will be 12.
