BUL part ways with three players

Uganda Premier League leaders BUL FC have confirmed the exits of forward Samuel Ssekamatte, defender Richard Ayiko and Joshua Okiror.

Ssekamatte has left in search of more playing time, having been underutilized by head coach Abbey Bogere Kikomeko.

Having joined from Arua Hill SC in January 2023, he leaves after just 16 league appearances, where he netted three goals.

This season, Ssekamatte, who has also previously featured for Soltilo Bright Stars FC, has played seven times, scoring just once.

Meanwhile, Ayiko was one of the standout performers for BUL when they clinched the Uganda Cup in the 2021/22 season, their first-ever piece of silverware as a topflight club.

Across two and a half seasons, the former Onduparaka FC player played 40 league matches, scoring one goal.

The three will not be part of BUL's title charge and will seek greener pastures elsewhere.
