Ghana Premier League giant Kumasi Asante Kotoko SC striker Steven Mukwala has been given a call-up to play for the Uganda national team in the AFCON Qualifiers.
He’s been a consistent performer with impressive showings in the Ghana Premier League which has led him to earning a place in the squad for the qualifiers.
He’s scored eight goals in 20 league games for the Porcupine Warriors this campaign.
The 23-year-old has been included in Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredojevic’s squad for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifications double-header against neighbours Tanzania.
Uganda will play host to the Taifa Stars of Tanzania at the St. Mary’s Stadium-Kitende in Entebbe on March 24 before the reverse fixture at the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium in Dar es Salaam four days later.
Since making his debut in 2019, Mukwala has capped 10 times for the Ugandan national team
