BUL FC goal hunter, Deogracious Ojok has now fully recovered from the knee injury that laid him off from competitive football for more than a half season.
The lofty forward has already made two cameos this season in the league against URA FC and Kyetume.
Ojok said he has got his much fitness back and he is very much ready to offer all he can to burst nets and help BUL FC win honours.
“I have worked hard to return to full fitness and I am going to work so much harder to break into the first team again. My target is to score more than ten goals in the remaining 25 games.”
The challenge before him now is that he has to dislodge the trio of Musa Esenu, Anwar Ntege and Paul Mbazira who have established themselves as the formidable forwards under the current head coach Arthur Kyesimira.
Before the injury, Ojok had already netted six goals in 2019/2020 season and was the principal striker under former head coach, Peter Onen. His splendid performance and goal scoring prowess earned him a nomination for the best Uganda Premier League player of the season though he missed on the final short list for the award.
BUL FC is in comprehensive preparations for league recommencement and has scheduled to play another friendly game against Jinja City neighbors and Big League newbies – Gadaffi FC on Saturday January 30, 2021 at Kyabazinga stadium in Bugembe at 4pm.
The Eastern giants, who have bagged four (4) points from five games sit in 12th position on the UPL table and will play KCCA FC when the league resumes in February.
