AFC Leopards chairman Dan Mule has expressed his delight on the club’s plan to recruit new players.
This comes after the club completed the signing of striker Ezekiel Otuoma from Western Stima.
Mule said that the technical bench had begun working in good time, as they plan to give a good account of themselves next year when they take on their African opponents in the Confederation Cup and locals in the SportPesa Premier League.
“The technical bench is doing all the recruitment work. They gave us a list of the players they want and we are working very hard to ensure that we have them in the team before we break for the Christmas festivities,” Mule said.
He added: “Otuoma is a good winger with enough Premier League experience, and the two Ugandans (Achema and Alukoya) are definitely bound to bring some competition in the team,” he said.
Matano has been on record saying Leopards needed quality players to challenge for top honours next season. The Ingwe camp indicates they need two more strikers and one defender.
The club had a troubled 2017 season that saw them summarily change coaches three times before eventually finishing eighth.
