Sofapaka FC are set to lose their key striker Umar Kasumba, who has expressed his desire not to renew his contract that ends this season.
The Ugandan who has enjoyed a stellar campaign so far this season, scoring 17 league goals and 22 times in all competitions is said to be heading to Germany for trials .
His impressive returns have attracted interest from Gor Mahia and AFC Leopards in the Kenyan Premier League, alongside other clubs in Rwanda, Tanzania, Zambia, Egypt and Morocco.
And now even German third-tier club FSV Zwickau has taken notice and invited him for trials.
“It’s true, we have been in touch with one club from Germany Bundesliga 3. They have agreed to have him on a three-week trial when the league in Kenya ends. I want him first to finish the league,” the 23-year-old’s agent Ronnie Nuwagira told Ugandan website Kawowo Sports.
Kasumba is competing against Kakamega Homeboyz forward Allan Wanga and Ulinzi’s Enosh Ochieng in the race to win the 2018/2019 Golden Boot.
Wanga has scored 18 goals while Ochieng has scored 16 goals.
Subsequently, Batoto Ba Mungu will not command any transfer fee should Kasumba move, as he is out of contract.
