Ugandan goalkeeper Molly Naava Nabitaka has officially been unveiled by Tanzanian giants Yanga Princesses, becoming the third Ugandan player to join the club.
Naava makes the move to Tanzania after an impressive spell with She Corporate FC, where she established herself as one of the standout goalkeepers in the FWSL.
The shot-stopper enjoyed an outstanding campaign last season, winning the FWSL Golden Glove after keeping an impressive 12 clean sheets. Her consistency between the posts played a key role in She Corporate's performances and earned her recognition as one of the league's top goalkeepers.
Her move to Yanga Princesses represents another important step in her career and gives her an opportunity to compete at a higher level in Tanzania while continuing to develop her reputation on the regional stage.
Naava joins a growing contingent of Ugandan talent at Yanga Princesses, becoming the third Ugandan unveiled by the Tanzanian side.
With her proven ability to keep clean sheets, command her penalty area and provide reliability between the posts, Naava will be expected to strengthen Yanga Princesses' goalkeeping department as the club prepares for the new campaign.
The transfer also highlights the growing movement of Ugandan women's football talent across East Africa, with players from the FWSL increasingly attracting attention from clubs in neighbouring countries.
For Naava, the move marks the beginning of a new chapter — one that will see the FWSL Golden Glove winner take her talents to Tanzania and look to make her mark with Yanga Princesses.
