FOOTBALL Revealed: URA FC raid Express FC as they swoop up Denis Otim and Ivan Mayanja
The tax collectors have raided Express FC and snapped up two players in goalkeeper Denis Otim and midfielder Ivan Mayanja who have both penned two-year contracts, Pulse Sports can confirm.
Alionz joined URA FC in 2016 from Adjumani Town Council while studying at University, making over 50 appearances for the four-time league champions.
The West-Nile born goal minder might have yet to win any silverware during his seven-year stay with the tax collectors.
Still, he had an impressive performance last season, picking up 12 clean sheets in as many games as URA FC finished fifth.
Sam Timbe’s charges, who last won the league in the 2010/11 season, will hope Alionz’s replacement in Denis Otim helps them end the club’s 13-year trophy drought next season.
