National Enterprise Corporation Football Club (NEC FC) have moved to secure the long-term future of two of their attacking players, Shamir Kimwero and Marvin Kavuma, after handing both forwards new five-year contract extensions.
The Bugolobi-based side has continued to build a squad capable of competing consistently at the top level of Ugandan football, and retaining key attacking talents represents an important part of that strategy.
Kimwero and Kavuma have both committed their futures to NEC FC for another five years, keeping the pair at the club for the long term.
The decision highlights the club's confidence in the two forwards and their potential to remain important figures in NEC's plans over the coming seasons.
Rather than relying solely on short-term recruitment, NEC are demonstrating a willingness to invest in players already within their setup and give them the stability needed to develop further.
The contract extensions provide NEC with greater continuity in attack as the club continues to strengthen its squad.
Both Kimwero and Kavuma offer attacking options that can be developed and integrated into the club's wider tactical plans. Keeping them together also gives the coaching staff an opportunity to build greater chemistry within the forward line.
For a club with ambitions of establishing itself among Uganda's leading sides, maintaining a core group of players over several seasons can be crucial.
The five-year agreements are also a statement of NEC FC's long-term ambitions.
The club has increasingly positioned itself as an ambitious side in Ugandan football, and securing promising players on extended contracts can help provide both sporting stability and greater control over the squad's future.
With Kimwero and Kavuma now tied down for the long term, NEC can concentrate on further strengthening other areas of the squad while continuing to develop its existing attacking talent.
For the two forwards, the new contracts represent a significant vote of confidence from the club.
Five-year deals give both players the opportunity to settle into their roles, continue improving and potentially become key figures in NEC's future campaigns.
The extensions also send a message to other players within the NEC setup that strong performances and development can be rewarded with long-term opportunities.
With Shamir Kimwero and Marvin Kavuma committed to the Bugolobi-based club for five more years, NEC FC have taken another important step towards building a stable squad capable of competing for major honours in the seasons ahead.
