Coronavirus: Uganda players must not entirely depend on football – Kabugo

Uganda international Savio Kabugo has challenged players in the country to establish at least one side business to bolster their livelihood.

With the Uganda Premier League (UPL) suspended for the next 21 days and the Africa Nations Championships (Chan) also cancelled owing to the coronavirus outbreak, Kabugo is pleading with players to make sure they stay fit despite the problems and also get something else to earn an income.

“When I am not fit, my family will not get what to eat. That’s why even in this period [coronavirus pandemic], I train so hard to be fit,” Kabugo is quoted by New Vision.
