Published on: 20 March 2019

Uganda Football Association President Moses Magogo is counting on the experience of coach Paa Kwesi Fabin in youth football to help develop the game in the South African country. 

Paa Kwesi Fabin was named the new coach of the Uganda U-17 team on Tuesday following his successes with the Black Starlets in the past.

Having led the Black Starlets to second place in Gabon 2017 and to the quarter finals of the world cup in India, the former Asante Kotoko gaffer is respected across the continent.

Moses Magogo lauded the Ghanaian's experience and hopes it helps improve youth football in Uganda.

“I therefore take this moment to announce Fabin Kwesi Samuel as the new head coach of the U17 national team. He has experience with such teams having coached the Ghana U17 national team. We therefore welcome you to Uganda,” he said in a press conference.

“We have had the position of the U17 National team head coach vacant and as FUFA, we looked for someone who has experience with the young players, a person who has contacts. Currently the market in Europe looks at young players. ”
