UPPC FC has bolstered its squad by signing experienced left-sided defender Isa Mubiru. The move reunites Mubiru with Coach Abdallah Mubiru, who previously signed him at KCCA FC.
Mubiru, a 28-year-old left-back known for his attacking runs, was released by KCCA FC at the end of last season after struggling for playing time. During his time at the Lugogo-based club, he was limited to just three league appearances, totaling 110 minutes, and was an unused substitute in 23 matches.
The veteran defender brings a wealth of experience, with a senior career spanning over a decade. He has played for several top Ugandan clubs, including two stints with Soana FC (which became Tooro United) and UPDF FC. His standout performances at UPDF FC earned him a move to Vipers SC in the 2022-2023 season, where he spent two seasons before his brief spell at KCCA FC.
Mubiru is the latest in a series of experienced signings for UPPC FC. The club has also secured the services of forward Steven Munguchi, midfielders Hassan Ssenyonjo and Noordine Bunjo, and defender Mustafa Mujuzi, adding significant depth and top-flight experience to their roster.
