STORY BY GEOFFREY MUGABI 

Uganda Cranes forward Fahad Aziz Bayo has completed a move to Tanzanian giants Yanga Africans.

According to reports, Bayo has signed a two-year contract with the reigning champions.

The pacy striker has been training with Yanga after parting ways with Czech Republic side MFK Vyskov in July this year.

With Kennedy Musonda expected to leave Yanga, Bayo comes as his direct replacement to fill the gap.

Known for his pace and execution, Bayo will wait for his Yanga debut until the second week of December this year, when he will be granted a working permit.

He joins his countryman Khalid Aucho at Yanga African.

The former Vipers man has played over 25 games for Uganda Cranes since he made his debut in 2018.

Bayo has previously played for Proline, Buildcon, Vipers SC, Bnei Sakhnin, Ashdod, and MFK Vyskov.
