Lugazi FC is set to officially unveil Steven Bogere as their new head coach following the club’s unsuccessful pursuit of former Cranes star David Obua.
Nkata steps into the role left vacant by Sadick Ssempigi, who departed last week after a series of disappointing results that saw the club struggling to gain momentum in the Uganda Premier League.
In the wake of Ssempigi’s exit, Oliver Mbekeka took on interim coaching duties and led the team to a crucial victory.
Lugazi FC celebrated their maiden UPL win under Mbekeka’s leadership with a hard-fought 1-0 triumph over Express FC.
This victory has raised hopes within the camp, setting a positive tone as the club transitions to Nkata’s leadership.
Steven Bogere brings extensive coaching experience to Lugazi FC, having worked with teams in Uganda including Onduparaka FC.
His deep understanding of the game, combined with his wealth of experience, is expected to be instrumental in turning around Lugazi FC’s fortunes.
The team’s next test comes on October 30, when Lugazi FC will host NEC FC in a crucial league fixture at home.
This upcoming match presents a fresh opportunity for the club to build on their recent success and establish themselves as contenders in the UPL.
With their new head coach at the helm, Lugazi FC is hopeful for a resurgence in form as they look to climb the league table.
The NEC FC clash will not only serve as a key match for points but also as a litmus test for Bogere’s strategies and tactical approach.
