“I am disappointed but this is part of life. I hope I will bounce back very strongly after getting good medication” Kiwanuka who is a proven game reader and shot stopper confessed to Kawowo Sports.
It has been established that Kiwanuka suffered the injury whilst on national duty when the Uganda Cranes were training at GEMS Cambridge play ground in Butabika.
Three man medical team for treatment and rehabilitation:
According to the medical team, a groin adductor requires four months for full recovery with well-defined medication under three highly qualifications as Arthur Afunye (Mulago Hospital), Ivan Sewanyana (KCCA) and Solomon Ndawula (Bright Stars).
He has already started training with two months down the road until December 2020.
He will be expected to return to active training in January 2021.
At his parent club, they have recalled Benson Wagima from Busoga United to join Simon Tamale as he fully recovers.
