FOOTBALL Byekwaso opens up on his decision to join SC Villa as an assistant coach
Byekwaso, who resigned at KCCA FC as head coach in April 2023 due to a string of poor results, says joining SC Villa in his capacity was based on his desire to learn more from a foreign coach as he also targets to manage clubs beyond the borders shortly.
Still, a string of poor results towards the end of the season, including the domestic cup exit, which to Morely was the catalyst for his departure, summed up his reign.
“I felt we could win the double at KCCA FC last season,” Byekwaso told Pulse Sports before adding.

FOOTBALL Breaking: KCCA FC’s Byekwaso resigns
KCCA FC head coach Morley Byekwaso has resigned from his position, credible reports have told Pulse Sports.
“But the players’ commitment was lacking overall, so after the Uganda Cup exit against Soltilo Bright Stars, it was tough to take in.”
Byekwaso added: “We all have targets, and mine was, at worst, to win the Uganda Cup, and it was achievable, but it wasn’t to be; it was a painful experience, that’s for sure.”
The 46-year-old credits the KCCA FC board, who he says supported him even in the hard times.
“The board supported me, that’s for sure, but I badly wanted to win the Stanbic Uganda Cup, and when I fell short, that was it for me,” he noted.

FOOTBALL Bright Stars stun KCCA FC again as Byekwaso throws in towel
Soltilo Bright Stars yet again displayed character as they eliminated KCCA FC from the Stanbic Uganda Cup after their 1-0 win on Sunday at the Kavumba Recreation grounds.
In April 2021, Byekwaso was named interim coach at the Lugogo-based club when Mike Mutebi left his role; he was later in August rewarded with a three-year contract but only served 16 months.
The former Uganda Cranes forward will now try and help the new Serbian head coach Dusan Stojanovic return to the glory days at S.C Villa. He is also tasked with managing the junior team.
KCCA FC recently appointed Portuguese tactician Sergio Daniel Moniz Traguil on a two-year deal; he is expected to begin work on 1st July 2023.
