Dennis Guma and striker Brian Umony are back in the Uganda Cranes fold after
missing the final two 2015 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
The two are among the 26-man
squad named by Cranes coach Micho Sredojevic to prepare for Tuesday’s
international friendly against Gambia and the 2017 Afcon qualifier against
Botswana at Namboole next Saturday.
Both St George’s Umony and
Lebanon-based Guma last played for the Cranes away in Togo last November, a
game Uganda lost 1-0.
The duo missed the final two
matches against Ghana and Guinea as Uganda failed to make the finals.
Guma was dropped following a fall-out
with his club that saw him stop training with them while Umony was left out
because of poor form.

Notably absent from the team include Tonny
Mawejje, suspended captain Andy Mwesigwa, Geofrey ‘Baba’ Kizito, Moses Oloya,
Emmanuel Okwi and free agent Daniel Sserunkuma.
