Uganda's football federation picked Morley Byekwaso and Fred Muhumuza to coach the national team for the 2024 African Nations Championship. The tournament happens from August 2 to 30 during 2025 across Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. Head coach Paul Put will watch over both men as they lead the locally based Cranes squad. The duo worked together before during October 2023 when they managed friendly games against Mali and Zambia. FUFA plans to name more technical staff after choosing the final player roster.
Byekwaso coached Uganda's under-20 team to the 2021 AFCON final and won silver at the 2024 African Games. He currently leads Sports Club Villa as their head coach. Muhumuza shares head coaching duties at Vipers Sports Club with another person. CHAN only allows players who compete for teams within their home countries. The three East African nations will host the competition under the Pamoja East Africa partnership name.
