Uganda Premier League side UPDF Football Club have finally completed the recapture of striker Robert Eseru.

The army side however, needed to fend off opposition from FUFA Big League side Police FC who were also massive suitors.

Sredojevic, a Serbian coach who was serving his second term as the Cranes coach, still had one year remaining on his contract, having signed a three-year deal in July 2021.

It's his second stint at the Bombo based outfit after his initial spell came to an end in 2021, before he joined Arua Hill SC.

Eseru finds familiar faces at the club including Yusuf Wasswa Yusuf, Bright Joseph Vuni as well as Arafat Kakonge.

Anticipating a huge season, UPDF have already signed Derrick Kaija, Edward Kawooya, Christopher Tebandeke, Henry Tenywa, Shugai Kalisa and Bashir Kabuye Bashir.

In their first match of the season, UPDF play host to URA FC at the Bombo Military Barracks Ground on Sunday.
