Uganda Cranes Head Coach Milutin Sredojevic aka Micho has released a provisional squad for the forthcoming African Nations Championship (CHAN). Uganda Cranes play their first game January 14, 2023 against Democratic Republic of Congo in Annaba, Algeria.

Micho named a squad of 35 players that will embark on preparations for the biennial tournament slated to take place between 13th January to 4th February next year in Algeria.

The CHAN tournament features national teams consisting of players currently playing in their respective domestic leagues.

While naming the squad, the coach confirmed the team will enter residential camp on Wednesday in Kisasi and have a pre tournament in Tunisia early next year.

“We have maintained the core of the team that played the Qualifier matches against Tanzania. We have had the first round of the league running and this helps to put the players in good shape,” he started.

The team will have training sessions until 24th December before breaking off for Christmas and return on Boxing day. The  Team will depart to Tunisia January 1 for a Pre-CHAN tournament with 3 or 4 friendlies lined up to fine tune the players.
