Murushid Juuko will remain a Red Eagle next season after the experienced center back signed on the dotted line for another year.

The “sheriff” who was outstanding as the Red Eagles won a 7th league title and also the club’s first in 12 years brings alot of experience to the team in general but also calmness at the back. Juuko was part of the backline which conceded the least goals in the league (13) and he states staying a Red Eagle was inevitable.

“It’s a great feeling to stay at this great club, this was bound to happen because of the environment we have at the club, everyone from the chairman down to the groundsman work as a team, the preparation too is up there so i am 100% sure I am at the right team”. He stated before adding the CECAFA Kagame Cup is key to the team’s success this season.

“As a team I believe we’ve prepared well, the boys are past celebrating the league win and focus is on the Kagame cup, I am positive we shall do well”.

Express FC are placed in group C alongside Nyasa Bullets of Malawi and Yanga Africans of Tanzania.
