Info coming in indicates SC Villa is expected to defeat NEC FC in their pursuit of Busoga United forward Emmanuel Ajo.
After an outstanding rookie season with Busoga United, Ajo is currently one of the most sought-after players available.
Numerous clubs in the Uganda Premier League, notably Kitara FC and KCCA FC in the past, have shown interest in signing him since January.
Although this website is aware that NEC FC and SC Villa have both been strong candidates for Ajo’s signature, the former has emerged as the clear favorite.
NEC FC has expressed interest in Ajo, although it is likely that he would sign with the recently crowned Uganda Premier League champions.
With nine league goals and three assists, the striker emerged as Busoga United’s bright spot throughout a disappointing campaign.
Two weeks ago, he received the Player of the Month Award to round off his outstanding first season in the top division.
Ajo is anticipated to be the first player signed by SC Villa in anticipation of the forthcoming campaign and the CAF Champions League.
It should be mentioned that Ajo, who participated in 14 games and finished with 17 goals and 6 assists, joined Busoga United at the beginning of the just finished season from 4th division team Kakira FC.
