“Namanda left for Rwanda, where he played for Musanze FC for two seasons, before coming back home to join Leopards.”
On his side, Tusker FC head coach Charles Okere said, “We are delighted to welcome Luke back to Tusker FC. He’s a player with great potential, and his previous experience with us will be valuable. We believe his addition will give us a boost as we continue to push for success in the league and other competitions.”
Namdanda himself added, “It feels great to be back at Tusker FC. I’ve always felt at home here, and I’m looking forward to helping the team achieve our goals. When I left here, I left as a league champion. I am coming back and I am hopeful I can return with the same touch and win trophies. I can’t wait to get started and give my best for the fans and the club.”
Namanda’s arrival comes at a time when the club’s leading marksman Ryan Ogam is being linked with a move away from the club. He will be hoping to feature immediately starting with their clash against Shabana on Wednesday.
