Africa-Press<\/a> – Uganda<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Seven players did not take part in the Cranes Friday morning main session as the team prepares for Monday’s final Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.<\/p>\n

Forwards Patrick Kaddu, Fahad Bayo, Abdu Lumala as well as Murushid Jjuuko, Allan Kyambadde were all on the sidelines as the team trained at the Philip Omondi Stadium on Friday.<\/p>\n

Defenders Timothy Awany and Elvis Bwomono were not at the stadium altogether with the latter having travelled back to England immediately after Cranes’ Wednesday goalless draw with Burkina Faso.<\/p>\n

Awany has been injured and missed games for his Israel club side Ashdod before the international break.<\/p>\n

Reports also indicate Ashdod are not keen on Awany and Bayo to travel to Malawi with the country considered to be in a high risk Covid region and would require players to go to be quarantined for several days upon their return.<\/p>\n

The situation could cause strain to the Cranes squad particularly the forward line after Kaddu who Bayo replaced during Wednesday’s game having gone off with a suspected muscle strain.<\/p>\n

Abdu Lumala and Patrick Kaddu stretching on the sidelines. They did not take part in the group session<\/p>\n

Kyambadde is meanwhile suffering with a groin problem while Lumala was also taken off taken off at half time on his competitive return after a long term knee problem.<\/p>\n

The absences could give game time to Vipers striker Yunus Sentamu who has scored six goals in 10 league games since returning to football action.<\/p>\n

Daniel Isiagi is the other option with the much traveled forward currently at South African second division side Jomo Cosmos where he has made five appearances in the league.<\/p>\n

The Cranes who are expected to fly out on Sunday need at least a draw against Malawi on Monday to qualify for a third straight Afcon appearance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
