Uganda Crane's Coach Bobby Williamson

Williamson is out of contract with Uganda cranes and his employers the Federation of Uganda Football Association is yet to secure funding it expects from the government of Uganda to ensure the country can retain the services of Bobby Williamson.

The Scotsman has guided Uganda to its best football period in over 30 years, with the country on course to qualify for the African Nations Cup after defeating Angola last week. Williamson has also won two CECAFA trophies for Uganda in his three years I charge and has seen Uganda improve to an all-time high of 63rd place in the FIFA rankings.
