Three football young stars who include Vipers SC’s captain Halid Lwaliwa, Ivan Bogere (Proline), and Busoga United’s forward Isma Mugulusi face off in the football players category for November.

Ivan Bogere and Isma Mugulusi are currently in Tanzania featuring at the U-20 AFCON CECAFA zonal qualifiers.

Whilst, Halid Lwaliwa has been at the senior side, the Cranes that played South Sudan’s AFCON qualifier double header in Kitende and Nairobi.
