Uganda Revenue Authority Football Club confirmed the acquisition of 2019/20 Uganda Premier league top scorer, Steven Desse Mukwala on a two-year employment contract.

The former Vipers SC forward who spent the all of his last season on loan at relegated Maroons FC has been on ladder of Ghanaian outfit Asante Kotoko but finally the tax collectors won his heart to stay in Uganda for another season.

URA FC is delighted to announce the signing of striker, Steven Mukwala Dese from Vipers SC on a two-year contract, with an option to extend for a further year.

Steven won the Golden Boot in the just concluded StarTimes Uganda Premier League 2019/20 season scoring 13 goals in 22 appearances for Maroons FC where he was on loan from Vipers. URA website confirms.

Steven Mukwala said: “URA FC is a big club and I feel so delighted and proud to be part of it. They’re an organized team with a playing style that matches mine.”

Steven Mukwala Dese poses in his new colors.

“I definitely hope to score more goals here than I scored at Maroons. URA has very good creative attacking midfielders who I think working together, I will be able to convert the goals.”

“It’s only fair to note that URA FC has very good strikers and it won’t be easy to break through the team but when given chance, I will give my best to see that I help the team get the goals and maybe win the trophy afterward.”

“The coach, board, and everyone affiliated with URA should expect to see 100% efforts from me and I want to try and win the trophy with URA FC this coming season, why not?” Mukwala said in his first interview with his new club.

The Sam Ssimbwa coached side signed a number of new faces who include; Jackson Nunda, Hannington Ssebwalunyo, Brian Nkuubi, Arafat Galiwango, Davis Ssali, to mention
