Magogo signs agreement with Morocco to develop Ugandan football
Federation of Uganda Football Associations (FUFA) President Eng. Moses Magogo has signed a long-term bilateral agreement with Morocco to improve standards of Ugandan football.
According to FUFA Media, the key areas in the agreement include exchange programmes of technical and administrative staff, hosting of national and club teams from either country by the other, training camps, sharing football knowledge, best practices and experiences.
“It is our strategy to create as many partnerships and relationships as possible for the betterment of our game. It is another milestone to have the Federal Republic of Morocco Football Association as our development partners and I am definitely excited”, Magogo said.
The move comes at a time when Morocco is shaking the football world at the FIFA World Cup, Qatar where the Atlas Lions have pulled off stunning setbacks defeating European football powerhouses including Belgium, Germany at the group stage and Spain in the round of 16.
“Our next move with this partnership is to take a delegation of football stakeholders to Morocco to understand how Government, Federation and Corporate sponsors are undertaking massive infrastructure development. It is amazing work going on in Morocco”, added Magogo.
