Ugandans Given a Chance to Design their Next National Football Team Jersey.

FUFA president Moses Magogo told a Media briefing yesterday Wednesday 22nd that Ugandans will be given a chance to design their National Football Team Jersey.

Speaking at his first official press conference since the team’s qualification, Magogo confirmed the Cranes will drop their current jersey after the January African Cup of Nations in Gabon.

Magogo confirmed saying,

He went on to say,

“We have got about four companies ready to sponsor our national team kit. After the 2017 finals in Gabon, we shall retire this current kit as it now belongs among the rich history heritage of this country.”

According to Kawowo Sport’s David Isabirye, re-known leading manufacturers Adidas, Nike, Puma, Errea and Jooma are still bidding to be the official producers of the Uganda Cranes Jersey.

The current Jersey with a strip on the left that runs from top to bottom came into effect in April 2010 with the Airtel Re-branding campaign. It will remain close to Ugandan’s hearts because of the many found memories.
