Mawa moved to Italy in January and registered his first hat trick on his debut, triggering keen interest.
He was a subject of interest in the summer transfer window with a potential move to Italian Serie A side US Salernitana 1919, where he was offered an opportunity to break into the lucrative European top-flight football.
However, the trials did not go as planned, as he returned to the Lucera roster for the 2023/24 season.
Before moving to Italy, Mawa was on a one-year contract at Villa Park in the 2021/22 season after making waves in the FUFA Junior League.
He featured for KCCA FC in the FUFA Junior League and starred at the 2020 U17 CECAFA Championship, Kigali, where he scored six goals and bagged the Golden Boot.
Another striker from the Uganda Premier League, Innocent Media, joined the Italian club from Arua Hill Sports Club for the new season. He did not feature in the match.
