Gaddafi Football Club officially appointed Peter Onen as their new head coach on a year-long renewable deal.

The Caf A licenced coach was presented to the media on Friday and takes over the head coach role from Mubarak Wamboya who is now the first-team coach with immediate effect.

Onen has two weeks to prepare the team for his first game in charge that will be against fellow newcomers Arua Hill after the international break.

"I am so grateful to the Gaddafi family for choosing me to lead this great club. My target has always been coming back to top-flight competition and that is why I am here to help this club stay in top-flight over the upcoming years.

"I am here to work with the team because It is a collective effort to see that we achieve the target," Onen said.

One has previously worked with Gulu Black Rangers, Gulu University, St Joseph’s College Layibi college, St Juliana High School and BUL Football Club. He was also in charge of Uganda’s U-17 side, the Cubs, between 2014 to 2019.

"Onen will provide tremendous leadership and experience to our ambitious project. His appointment is a huge step in building a long-term and consistent winning culture at the club," said club CEO Mukembo.
