Morley Byekwaso reveals the reason he joined SC Villa from KCCA

Uganda Premier League leaders KCCA’s head coach Morley Byekwaso has revealed why he joined SC Villa from the Kasasiro boys during his days as a footballer.

During an exclusive interview on NBS Sport, Byekwaso recalled an incident when he missed a penalty in a game his then club, KCCA was taking on SC Villa.

This made fans of KCCA to hate him so much because of the rivalry that existed between the two sides.

The following season he decided to make a switch from Lugogo to Nsambya.

One of the reasons that made him make this transfer was the number of U20/23 national team players that were at Villa.

He felt secure there because the bond he had with them was just great.

“I missed a penalty kick against
@SCVillaJogoo
while I was paying for
@KCCAFC
.Fans hated me so much because of the football rivalry back then. The following year I decided to join SC Villa because most of the under 20/23 players were there and we had a bond.”

Coach Morley Byekwaso also talked about his two years at the Philip Omondi stadium as head coach.

According to him, these years have not been easy but he’s trying his level best to bring KCCA back to winning trophies and the style of play.

“My two years at
@KCCAFC
as head coach haven’t been easy however, I’m trying my best for us to win the trophies, bring back the format of play of the club. At this point in @KCCAFC, we are around at 65% in what we want however, we still have a problem with our format play and going into the second round, we are planning to rectify that.”

Byekwaso also talked about the club’s Congolese born striker Simon Tshisungu Kankonde.

Kakonde has found life to be a bit difficult in the UPL and is yet to hit the ground running.
