Coronavirus: Fufa will do everything possible to conclude UPL – Magogo

The Federation of Uganda Football Association (Fufa) president Moses Magogo has remained confident the 2019-20 Uganda Premier League (UPL) season will be completed on the pitch.

All sporting activities in Uganda are still on lockdown as part of government measures to contain the spread of the coronavirus.

President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni is expected to give an update when the current provisional lockdown ends on May 5, although easing the ban on mass gatherings - where sports falls - could still be a long time away

"With that uncertainty, Fufa and the top-flight remain in a state of bother on the status of the national league completion and pre-season activities, factoring in mind that the 2020/21 season is also beckoning in September,” Magogo told Daily Monitor.
