Mbarara City FC have strengthened their goalkeeping department with the signing of Bashir Ssekagya, who has joined the Ankole Lions as a free agent following his departure from Vipers SC.
Ssekagya becomes one of the latest additions to Mbarara City as the club continues to shape its squad ahead of the upcoming season. His arrival is expected to provide increased competition and experience between the posts as the Ankole Lions prepare for another demanding campaign.
The goalkeeper arrives from Vipers SC, one of Uganda's leading clubs, where he was part of a competitive goalkeeping setup. His move to Mbarara City represents a fresh opportunity for the shot-stopper to secure regular playing time and establish himself as an important figure in the club's plans.
Goalkeeping is one of the most important areas of any competitive squad, and Mbarara City's decision to bring in Ssekagya highlights the club's desire to build depth and competition in every department.
The goalkeeper is expected to bring composure, shot-stopping ability and experience to the Ankole Lions. With the new season approaching, his presence will give the technical team another reliable option when selecting the matchday squad.
Ssekagya's experience of being part of the Vipers setup also gives him exposure to the demands and expectations that come with playing for a high-level Ugandan club. He will now look to translate that experience into consistent performances for Mbarara City.
Ssekagya is not the only new arrival at Mbarara City. Bright Vuni has also completed his move to the club, making the duo the latest players to sign for the Ankole Lions.
The two additions form part of Mbarara City's ongoing squad-building exercise as the club looks to assemble a competitive team capable of achieving its targets in the new campaign.
Their arrivals are expected to increase competition within the squad while giving the coaching staff more options as they prepare for the challenges ahead.
For Ssekagya, the move to Mbarara City provides an opportunity to begin a new chapter after leaving Vipers SC.
Joining as a free agent means the goalkeeper can immediately focus on establishing himself at his new club and competing for the starting position. With the season drawing closer, attention will now turn to how quickly he settles into the Ankole Lions' setup.
Mbarara City will hope that Ssekagya's arrival proves to be an important piece of their preparations, particularly as they seek consistency and stability at the back.
With Ssekagya and Vuni now on board, the Ankole Lions continue to make moves in the transfer market, signalling their ambition to enter the new season with a stronger and more competitive squad.
