The Federation of Uganda Football Associations (Fufa) Appeals Committee has ordered SC Villa to release striker Charles Lwanga, effective immediately, and settle his seven-month unpaid salary.
The St Mary's Secondary School student had, at the beginning of the year, demanded a release after an alleged breach of contract by the club.
The Dispute Resolution Chamber directed the club to settle the striker's seven-month salary, totalling to Ush3.5M, within three months and if they fail to do so, the player will be free to leave.
