Other players in the team are the Kenyan duo of defender Joash Onyango and midfielder Francis Kahata, striker Meddie Kagere and goalkeeper Aishi Manula.
On signing Lwanga, Simba said in a statement: “He has been signed to replace Gerson Fraga who recently underwent knee surgery due to an injury he picked earlier this season. Fraga will be out of action for more than six months so he was allowed to return to Brazil to oversee his treatment.”
In a recent interview, coach Vandenbroeck explained why he signed Lwanga.
“As you know, Gerson [Fraga] was ruled out for six to eight months meaning we had only one holding midfielder Jonas [Mkude],” Vandenbroeck explained as quoted by Daily News.
