Uganda national team head coach Paul Put has unveiled a 26-man squad for upcoming friendlies against Comoros and Ghana later this month during the FIFA international window.
Captain and Young Africans midfielder Khalid Aucho and Abdul Aziizi Kayondo are excluded from the Cranes squad due to injuries.
The team will face Comoros on March 22 and Ghana on March 26 at the Stade Grande Marrakech in Morocco.
These matches aim to prepare Uganda for the upcoming 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers and the resumption of the FIFA World Cup 2026 campaign.
Local players join after the last Uganda Premier League games, while foreign-based players head directly to Morocco from their clubs.
Steve Mukwala, who plies his trade with Ghanaian club Asante Kotoko SC, has been summoned to face the Black Stars.
