Ugandan Premier League (UPL) outfit have added to their squad by signing Ivan Ahimbisibwe.
“URA is delighted to announce that Ivan Ahimbisibwe has completed his move to the club on a two-year contract,” said a statement on their official website, adding: “The goal poacher joins us from Army side UPDF FC.”
Nicknamed “The Hunter” Ahimbisibwe was UPDF’s leading scorer in the past two seasons netting 10 goals in each of those seasons including being named Most Valuable Player for the club last season. He began his club football career at Synergy FC between 2015 and 18 and proved himself as a natural goal-hunter, becoming the club’s all-time leading scorer.

His goal-scoring abilities will without a doubt be of great impact to the Tax Collectors as they attempt to win silverware in the upcoming 2023-24 season and he is expected to make his debut against KCCA FC in the FUFA Super 8 semi-final tie at the MTN Omondi Stadium on Friday.
