Uganda Cranes international Allan Oyirwoth has officially been unveiled as a new player for Scottish side Dunfermline Athletic, completing his move from Major League Soccer club New England Revolution.
The talented midfielder joins Dunfermline on a loan deal running until May 2027, with the Scottish club also securing an option to make the transfer permanent at the end of the loan spell.
Oyirwoth arrives with a growing reputation as an exciting, athletic and attack-minded midfielder. His ability to cover ground, drive forward with the ball and contribute to attacking situations is expected to add another dimension to Dunfermline's midfield.
Dunfermline head coach Neil Lennon has reportedly been monitoring the Ugandan international for several months and believes the player can fill an important gap within his squad.
The move represents another significant step in Oyirwoth's developing career. His switch to Scottish football provides the Uganda international with an opportunity to gain regular competitive experience in Europe while continuing his development at a demanding level.
Dunfermline will hope Oyirwoth's energy, athleticism and attacking qualities can strengthen their midfield as they pursue their objectives for the season.
For Oyirwoth, the loan move is also an important opportunity to establish himself in Scottish football and demonstrate his qualities on a bigger stage.
The Uganda Cranes midfielder will now turn his attention to settling into his new surroundings and competing for a regular place in Neil Lennon's side, with his performances potentially determining whether Dunfermline exercise their option to sign him permanently in May 2027.
Allan Oyirwoth is officially a Dunfermline Athletic player — and another Ugandan talent is taking his next step on the European stage.
