Had it not been for the rain soaked pitch, Luwaga would have scored Cranes first AFCON goal against Mali

Former Viper’s playmaker William Kizito Luwaga has threatened to quit national team football if Micho Sredojevic remains the coach. Luwaga who travelled back yesterday to his Portugal based club Rio Ave has not been in good terms with the coach for a while. Before he set off for Portugal, Luwaga opened up about his future on the national team and his relationship with Micho.

“He can’t handle players with my style because he doesn’t like it. National team is not my home and Uganda has a lot of good players,” said Luwaga. 

In our 1-1 draw AFCON game against Mali, Luwaga refused to shake hands with Micho during the course of his substitution and this is what he said about the incident, “He will choose others and play but apologizing to someone who is killing my talent and career is like betraying my soul. I even regret why I came for AFCON.”

“I have not officially received any communication banning me from the national team but Micho knows the big issue between us although he can’t say it. “I talked to captain Geoffrey Massa after the game and he understood me and I said sorry although it made him feel disrespected. But Micho I will never. Uganda Cranes doesn’t need a player like me until one coach who gives me freedom comes,” the attacker explained.
