Former Arua Hill SC star forward Ronald Innocent Media is already in the thick of things less than a fortnight since joining Italian side Unione Sportiva Lucera Calcio.

The youngster was pictured in training with the side that trades in the sixth-tier of Italian football.

He was, like expected, all smiles donning the blue and white jersey, preparing for the forthcoming season.

This, however is set to breed in new pain for the Arua Hill faithful and base, who were not convinced with the manner with which he left.

His move to Italy was hugely contested by the Kongolo, who claimed the player was still under contract and on their books.

"We are not aware of that Italian club. We also see it in social media. Media is an Arua Hill player on a two-year contract," Arua Hill CEO, Pius Bamwange, who has since resigned, said then.

Media joined Arua Hill in the 2021/22 campaign after impressive shows in the schools' competition with Buddo Secondary School.

He netted 13 goals in 23 Uganda Premier League appearances for the Leopards across one and a half seasons.
