REVEALED: Uganda coach has not been paid for 5 months despite incredible achievement

Published on: 15 November 2015

Despite qualifying Uganda for the group stage of the 2018 World Cup qualifiers, Uganda national team coach, Milutin Micho Sredojovic has not been paid his salaries since June, GHANAsoccernet.com can exclusively reveal.

Micho who masterminded the 4-0 aggregate win over Togo today in Kampala has been in debt with the Ugandan Football Federation for the past five months despite his incredible coaching record with the Cranes.

Uganda won the first leg in Togo by a lone goal and walloped the Hawks in the return leg in Kampala by 3-0.

The Serbian trainer who has been on the African continent for close to fifteen years has a miraculous record of 66% win rate with the Cranes of Uganda after playing 30 matches as the head coach.

The former Rwanda coach has won 20 matches out of the total number of 30 matches he has superintended as coach of Uganda, drawing four and losing only six.

Micho has an enviable record of playing six matches away this year winning all, including wins over Nigeria, Sudan and Togo.

Sources close to the Serbian tactician revealed to Ghanasoccernet.com that he is owed an amount of $75,000 in arrears as he is paid approximately $15,000 a month.

The 45-year-old was appointed on May 21, 2013 to fill the post that had been vacant since Bobby Williamson's contract was terminated in April, signing a two-year deal with the Cranes.

Apart from Rwanda, Micho has coached clubs like Saint Georges of Ethiopia, Orlando Pirates of South Africa and Al Hilal of Sudan.
