The Federation of Uganda Football Associations (FUFA) has officially fired the national football team head coach Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredojevic.
Sredojevic, a Serbian coach who was serving his second term as the Cranes coach, still had one year remaining on his contract, having signed a three-year deal in July 2021.
In an official statement, FUFA announced, “Today, on Thursday, September 14th, 2023, FUFA and Mr. Milutin Sredojevic mutually agreed to terminate the existing employment contract between the two parties.
FUFA expressed its appreciation for Sredojevic’s dedication and efforts during his tenure as the Head Coach of the Uganda Cranes.”
This development follows Uganda Cranes’ failure to qualify for the Cote D’Ivoire 2023 Africa Cup of Nations which followed mounting calls for his dismissal over the disappointing performance of the team.
