President Magogo explains why Fufa will not bail out clubs from financial turmoil

The Federation of Uganda Football Associations (Fufa) President Moses Magogo has explained why the clubs will not enjoy financial support.

Led by Premier League clubs, teams in Uganda had reached out to Fufa to bail them out during the coronavirus pandemic but Magogo has come out to make it clear why such prayers cannot be granted.

“The government allocation of funds is done by an act of Parliament. Whatever we request for, must be used according to the initial plan. Therefore, we cannot channel the funds because there is a shortage,” Magogo told the club's representatives during the consultative meeting on the 2020/21 season.
