Steven Mukwala has been a top target for the Porcupines for the last two seasons but a deal couldn’t be struck due to differences in fees.
Kotoko, this season returned to the negotiations table with the goal scoring machine as the search for a quality striker to replace Franck Mbella who will leave the club continues.
Mukwala who currently plies his trade at Uganda Revenue Authority SC (URA) have now completed his move to the Kumasi-based club after an agreement was reached between the two clubs few days ago.
The 23-year-old highly rated striker spent the 2019-20 season at Maroons FC where he was crowned top scorer of the Uganda Premier League. He netted 13 goals in 23 appearances to emerge goal king of the 2019/2020 campaign while on loan from Vipers SC.
After the failed move to Ghana, Mukwala joined URA after leaving Vipers.
In his first season at the URA, the prolific attacker finished the 2020-21 campaign as the club’s top scorer with 14 goals in 24 matches and third on the goal king chart in Uganda.
In the just-ended season, Dese netted 13 goals in the Ugandan Premier League for URA FC, finishing as the club’s second top scorer of the season.
Mukwala made his competitive debut for the Uganda national team on 6 September 2021 when the Cranes played Mali in the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
Steven Mukwala has agreed to a two-year deal with thePorcupines subjected to medical examination.
He’s expected to land in Ghana next month to complete his paper works and join the team for the Turkey preseason.
