Former Uganda Cranes midfielder Mike Sserumaga has been admitted to Old Mulago Hospital after collapsing at his home.
According to reports, initial medical scans revealed skull damage and complications with blood circulation. He later suffered a stroke and is currently receiving treatment.
Friends, teammates, and well-wishers have appealed for financial support towards his medical bills, with contributions directed to +256708975563.
Earlier this year, Sserumaga made a surprise return to competitive football, officially rejoining Proline FC during the January transfer window. His comeback was inspired by his impressive displays with Football Classroom, a WhatsApp group-based team that featured in the 51st Stanbic Uganda Cup. Despite their early exit at the Round of 64 against FUFA Big League side Buhimba United, his performances caught the attention of Proline.
Sserumaga’s illustrious playing career saw him turn out for several top clubs, including KB Lions, SC Villa, Vipers SC, Police FC, URA FC, St. George (Ethiopia), Helsingborg (Sweden), and Rayon Sport (Rwanda).
On the international stage, he earned 34 caps for the Uganda Cranes, scoring six goals.
