KCCA Football Club, a powerhouse in Uganda's Premier League, announced on Wednesday, July 23, 2025, that they have extended the contract of midfielder Umar Lutalo for two years. This move underscores the club's commitment to building a strong, cohesive squad capable of competing at the highest level.
Lutalo first joined the "Kasasiro Boys" in January 2025, initially signing a six-month short-term contract. However, recognizing his potential and contribution to the team, both parties decided to formalize a longer-term partnership. The new agreement, confirmed via the club's official website, ensures that Lutalo will remain at Lugogo Stadium for the next two seasons.
Despite a challenging start to his tenure at KCCA, where he grappled with securing consistent playing time after transitioning from Kitara FC, Lutalo has shown dedication and ambition. In an interview with the club media, he expressed his determination to play a pivotal role in guiding KCCA back to its glory days.
"I am eager to contribute my part in achieving our goals and bringing success to Lugogo," Lutalo stated. "Signing this new contract with KCCA FC is a happy moment for me. From the moment I arrived, I have felt at home. The coaches, my teammates, and the fans have all been incredibly supportive."
The club's decision to extend Lutalo's contract reflects his growing importance to the team's strategy, as well as the positive impact he has made since his arrival. As KCCA continues to rebuild and compete in the highly competitive Uganda Premier League, securing key players like Lutalo is crucial for sustaining momentum and success on the field.
Umar Lutalo's recommitment to KCCA FC not only strengthens the squad but also signals the club's focus on long-term planning and player development. With this move, KCCA FC aims to solidify its position as a leading force in Ugandan football and continue its pursuit of championships and trophies.
