Defensive midfielder Jerome Kirya has extended his stay at BUL FC after putting pen paper on a two-year employment contract.

This means Kirya will be committed to the Eastern Giants until 2026 after extending his stay at the Jinja-based club before his contract expires.

The development was made public on Saturday, January 27 through a statement shared on the club’s official website.

“We can announce the midfielder Jerome Kirya has signed a two-year employment contract extension with BUL,” the statement partly reads.

“He commits to the Eastern Giants at least until July 2026 since his earlier contract was meant to expire in June this year,” it went on.

After putting the pen on paper, Kirya expressed his gratitude noting he badly wanted to stay at a club that equally wanted him.

“I was sure I wanted to stay here for a long time and was also sure the club wanted me to,” Kirya was quoted by the club’s website.

“Everything was peaceful, and now we can fully concentrate on what is already looking like a great season,” he added.

Kirya joined BUL in 2021 from Busoga United, during his time at the club he helped the club lift the Uganda Cup and also finished in fourth place for the first time.
