Ssali, son of popular musician Bebe Cool, has been rewarded for his relatively outstanding performances in the Uganda Premier League, where he has scored three goals, so far.

It should be noted that this is his first season in the top flight, having been signed from Proline FC in the Regional League.

Ssali has previously been summoned to various under-age national engagements, including at the U17 and U20 levels.

The Morley Byekwaso-coached team will embark on preparations this week, assembling at FUFA House on Thursday before heading to FUFA Technical Centre, Njeru, where they will enter a residential camp.
