Ugandan Premier League outfit BUL FC have sealed the signing of midfielder Ibrahim Orit from Arua Hill on a two-year contract.

“BUL football club is delighted to confirm the signing of midfielder Ibrahim Orit from Arua Hill. Orit has signed a two year contract with the Eastern Giants,” read a statement on their official website.

On signing the deal, Orit said: “BUL is a good club with big ambitions as they have been fighting for the title for the last three seasons. Have a good collection of talent, and if we blend well with what I bring to the table, we shall win trophies.

“As a winger, I will put in all I can and create opportunities for the strikers.”

On his part coach Abbey Kikomeko said; “We were lacking an experienced midfielder; we only had Jerome Kirya who was overloaded in that he had to play almost all the games and looked like getting tired. So, we needed to beef up our midfield department and Ibrahim Orit was the best choice for the task.

“He has got the experience that we need having played in the topflight and for big teams before. I think he can give us a push in front and I believe we are in a better position for the title hunt come the second round.”

The 26 – year-old Uganda Cranes international contributed seven goals and two assists in the course of three seasons at Vipers, helping the club win four trophies – two Uganda premier league titles and two Uganda cups.Orit was also a diligent servant of Mbarara City where he made 30 assists and scored eight goals in three years.

He has made about five appearances for the senior national team, scoring for the Uganda Cranes in the 5-2 defeat against Morocco in the 2020 African Nations Championship (CHAN) in January 2021.
