Uganda Cranes forward Erisa Keith Ssekisambu completed a dream move to Kenya Premier League giants Gor Mahia FC, Ugandan Outlet Kawowo reports.
The players’ agent Ronald “Ronnie Santos” Niwagira has revealed that the forward has penned down a two-year deal, with the green Army.
“Yes. Erisa Ssekisambu has signed a two year deal with Gor Mahia, the best club in Kenya. I wish him the very best in his future endeavors” Santos told Kawowo Sports.
“Ssekisambu has been a free agent since he made the decision not to renew his contract at the reigning Uganda Premier league champions Vipers.
His move to the club comes days after another Ugandan, Shafiq Batambuze joined the club from Tanzanian side Singida United.
Gor Mahia has also signed Kenneth Muguna (FC Tirana), Nicholas Kipkirui (Zoo) and the talented Kenyatta University student Castro Ogendo.
Ssekisambu joins the ever-swelling list of Ugandans to have played at the treasured Kenya club whose big following is only challenged by fierce rivals – AFC Leopards.
Other Ugandans who have played at Gor Mahia include David Otti (R.I.P), Dan “Muzeyi” Sserunkuma, Jimmy Bageya, Ivan “Rasta” Anguyo, Aucho Khalid, Geofrey “Baba” Kizito, Godfrey “Jajja Walu” Walusimbi and a Ugandan born Meddie Kagere (now nationalized to play for Rwanda national team) among others.
For starters, Otti also coached Gor Mahia in the later stages of his industrious career.
