BUL Football Club has renewed bonds with two players, midfield fulcrum Godfrey Akol and attacker Richard Wandyaka.
The duo have signed a one year contract extension singly and will all stay at the club up to at least 2022.
Akol and Wandyaka joined us from Busoga United and URA FC respectively and they have never looked back since then.

Wandyaka said
“I am loving my time at this club. From the day I joined I have been made to feel part of the BUL family and I have been extremely humbled and stunned by the cordiality and love of our fans, and of course we miss their amazing support.”
“I would like to thank manager Alex and his coaching staff for their belief in me and for helping me to take my game to the next level.
“Our dream is all about winning trophies and I am sure first piece of silverware is not that far away.”

“Wandyaka and Akol are some of those good players that any coach would love to work with. They have some good footballing brain which, when coupled with their talents, I know we can win something at the end of this coming season.“
“This is the perfect club for both Akol and Wandyaka to progress as top-class players and we are all delighted they have signed new contracts with us.”
