Ramadhan Kareem is an Islamic saying communicated amongst the muslims as a way of wishing one another a blessed holy month of Ramadhan.
However, this is a special case in the football circles after Uganda Premier League side Mbarara City Football Club lured central defender “Ramadhan Kareem” in this transfer window.
Kareem joined the Ankole Lions from FUFA Big League side New Villa Football Club on a four-year contract and will stay at Kakyeka Stadium until the end of the 2022/2024 season.
He featured for Rwenzori province in the 2018 and 2019 FUFA Drum tournaments and is expected to form a partnership with skipper Hilary Mukundane.
He also had a brief stint in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
He becomes the club’s fourth signing in the ongoing window after Ronald Edwork, Godfrey Kalungi and Samali Farouk.
At his new home Mbarara City, he will face competition from Bamba Soulyamane and Ibrahim Mugandaazi who play in the same position.
