Innocent Rwothmio has scored 12 goals in 13 matches for BUL FC Junior Team in the current season.

StarTimes Uganda Premier League side BUL FC has handed promising South Sudan teenager Innocent Rwothmio a three-year contract.

Rwothmio had several appearances with the senior team last season and has impressed coach Abbey Kikomeko who has decided to promote him.

The youngster scored about 12 goals in 13 matches for the junior team as they won the Eastern Region Junior League to qualify for the national games.

Rwothmio has been promoted alongside three other exciting talents Richard Okello, Julius Baraza and Swabiru Mpasa

“…the quartet were drafted into the first team where they equally impressed last season, and each has now penned a three-year contract with the Eastern Giants,” the club stated.

Rwothmio was summoned to the South Sudan National Under-17 team that had qualified for the Africa Cup of Nations earlier this year but didn’t play as the team was bundled out for age-cheating.
