With five games already played in the 2023/24 Uganda Premier League campaign, Mulanda will miss the remaining ten matches of the first round. He is expected to make his comeback on match day 17 during the second round of fixtures.
Interestingly, Mulanda's return will take place in the second leg of the game between Busoga and Gaddafi at Kakindu Stadium.
