Express FC has swiftly moved to fill the coaching void by officially announcing Baker Mbowa as the new head coach. The appointment, revealed through an official press release, signifies a strategic initiative by the Premier Uganda League club to usher in a fresh era under the guidance of Mbowa.
Baker Mbowa steps into the role on a two-year contract, with immediate effect, following the departure of Isabirye, who cited a challenging working environment as the reason for his resignation.
The announcement comes amid a challenging period for Express FC, marked by a winless streak in their last six matches, culminating in their exit from the Uganda Cup at the hands of BUL FC over the weekend.
Express FC’s decision to bring in Mbowa reflects a commitment to instigate positive changes and rejuvenate the team’s performance.
The new head coach brings valuable experience, having previously coached at Proline FC and Soltilo Bright Stars FC.
Mbowa’s immediate task will be to address the team’s recent struggles and guide them back to winning ways.
With the duo of Mbowa and Suleiman Mutyaba, a former Express FC player, taking charge, their first challenge looms large against arch-rivals SC Villa on March 9, 2024, pending any scheduling changes.
Express FC fans are optimistic that Mbowa’s appointment will inject fresh momentum into the team and provide a foundation for success in the upcoming matches.
As the club navigates this transitional period, all eyes will be on the new coaching staff as they embark on their journey to revive Express FC’s fortunes in the Uganda Premier League.
