Uganda Cranes coach Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredojevic has named 18 professionals plying their trade outside Ugandan borders, for next week’s crunch home-and-away double-header against the Stallions of Burkina Faso.

Among the professionals are the usual suspects such as striker Geoffrey Massa, goalkeeper Denis Masinde Onyango, and midfielders Tony Mawejje and Farouk Miya.
But there are also a number of interesting inclusions who haven’t been in the Cranes fold recently, chief among them USA-based Mike Azira of Colorado Rapids and Yasser Mugerwa of South African giant Orlando Pirates. Emmanuel Okwi of Danish top flight side Sonderjsyke returns to the national team for the first time in almost a year, having been dropped last year as his career was on the rocks.

Another interesting inclusion is Proline’s teenage striker Edrisa Lubega, who is currently leading the scoring charts in the second-tier competition, FUFA Big League.
