Earlier, The Nerve Africa had reported that the two sides had reached an agreement for the young midfielder to join Cleopatra Ceramica from Uganda Premier League champions SC Villa.ย
The deal, now fully finalized, sees the 19-year-old sign a permanent contract with the Egyptian side. Kyeyune, who was pivotal in Uganda’s impressive silver-medal finish at the 2024 All-Africa Games, will begin his tenure at Cleopatra Ceramica ahead of the 2024/25 season.
