Mr. “Fanta-stic” rarely speaks but when he does, he’s driving a point home like is the case here.

The 27-year-old who joined the Red Eagles in January 2021 hasn’t exactly hit the ground running from the start but insists Express FC will leave everything on the pitch during the Stanbic Uganda Cup quarter final second leg against KCCA FC.

The two sides meet up on Friday with the tie evenly poised at 0-0 and for Mutyaba, the team has come along way and can’t risk bottling it at the most crucial time in the season.

“The team has done a fantastic job from day one, everyone now knows we want to do well in every competition we are in so Friday’s game is certainly one we’re preparing well for, we’re definitely throwing the kitchen sink at KCCA FC, we know it won’t be a walk in the park as they put up a good display in the first leg but the boys are up for the fight”.

“As an individual, I know the final bend of the season is so crucial and I am preparing to do all I can to help the team perform well and end the season on a high.”

“I’ve been trying my best to make the team but as a player, you can’t be in control of certain situations but whenever I’ve gotten a chance, I’ve done my best to help the boys and now more than ever, the final bend of the season is soo key and I’ll do everything possible to help the club end the season on a high, winning silverware is key this season and I am focused on making sure it happens”.

Mutyaba has managed three starts and come off the bench in as many games, his last appearance was on 20th April away to Bright Stars, coming on for Kayiwa Ibrahim although the Red Eagles went on to lose 1-0 and has since then been in and out of the treatment room albeit making the bench on a few occasions but with a recurring malaria bout although all that is in the past as he gears up to face his former side on Friday.
