Defender Kabugo parts ways with Ethiopian club

Ugandan defender Savio Kabugo has mutually terminated his employment contract at Ethiopian top tier outfit, Sebeta Kenema Football Club.

Kabugo had joined this club last July 2020 from Democratic Republic of Congo’s AS Vita.

The decision to terminate the contract remains unknown at large since the player has been locked down in Uganda since March 2020 when the Coronavirus pandemic plugged the entire country.

Due to the pandemic; Sebeta Kenema Football Club and I had to make some tough decisions. We have come to a mutual agreement to terminate our contractual relationship. I would like to thank the club president, coach and his technical team, my team mates and our beloved fans. It has been a great experience winning and loosing together and I wish you the very best Sebeta Kenema Football Club.
