New York Bulls which is coached by former Uganda Cranes captain Ibrahim Sekagya has been tracking the striker since last year.
“Frank (Ssebuufu) has many skills that he can bring to the table and will be a great piece within the squad,” Ssekagya says.
“His domestic and international success was a main factor in our discussion to bring him on board.”
Sporting Director Denis Hamlet also emphasized that Ssebuufu was a great addition to New York Red Bulls II and has a bright future ahead.
“We are pleased to welcome Frank to the club for our first NEXT MLS PRO season. He has a bright future, and we know he will be a great addition to the squad.”
