Defensive midfielder Abubakar Kasule’s second debut for Express FC is yet to come after suffering a knee injury during preseason training. However, his rehabilitation process from the injury is going on well in the United States of America.

“It’s tricky to start with an injury because that happened when I had just joined the club a month back. After having a scan the doctors told me that I had a torn muscle in my right knee and it was scary because I thought it would take me a long to recover. But the experts in America have made it easier for me and after having a vacuum surgery three weeks back I am now going through my rehab.”
The 23-year-old is expected to be back in December to add more strength to the team that has had a good start to the season so far.

“By the end of November, I will have fully recovered from the injury and ready to play again for Express and I would like to thank the club administration for the support they have continuously given me.”
The seven-time StarTimes Uganda Premier League champions are positioned fourth on the 15-team log with 11 points after six games and have a game in hand.
The team is doing well so far and Kasule’s return will only boost options especially in midfield.
“I am overjoyed to see what the team is doing at the moment they are performing well and this has also helped me to heal very well without any kind of pressure. Personally, I believe in all my teammates and the coaches that with consistency we can compete favourably for the trophy.”
Kasule rejoined the Red Eagles during the August 2022 transfer window on a two-year contract and will soon kick start his second stint at Muteesa II Stadium, Wankulukuku.
The team wishes Abubakar Kasule a quick recovery.
He was a teenager previously during his first stint as a Red Eagle between 2016 and 2018.
