Karim Ndugwa is moments away from joining Uganda Premier League record holders SC Villa on a reported one-year contract.
The proven goal-getter is currently training with the Jogoo in anticipation of a possible move as they continue the search for Charles Bbaale's successor.
Initially, reports had linked Ndugwa to Express Football Club as the seven-time League winners target a replacement for Allan Kayiwa.
Others imitated the lanky striker could end up at Rwanda's Rayon Sport, but Villa is now the most realistic destination.

Vipers released Ndugwa in preseason as he was deemed surplus to requirements at the club and wasn't listed in the season's squad.
Before his Vipers exploits, Ndugwa was a standout figure in BUL FC's inaugural championship victory, instrumental in guiding the club to their triumphant conquest of the Uganda Cup.
