Hussein Mbalangu inherits a URA side that has struggled for consistency, currently sitting in 10th place and trailing league leaders KCCA by 15 points.
His primary challenge will be addressing a goal-scoring drought that plagued the previous regime. With his “4-3-3 Defending” preference and a reputation as a tough disciplinarian, Mbalangu is expected to shore up a backline that has been uncharacteristically leaky.
His immediate task is to navigate the group stages of the Mapinduzi Cup before a daunting league return against Entebbe UPPC on January 8.
