Tanzania Premier League side could be forced to turn attention to other targets due to the huge transfer fee that KCCA FC want from their talisman Ivan Ahimbisibwe, Swift Sports Uganda understands.
Despite their desire to sign the 2025/26 Uganda Premier League top scorer in this transfer window, Azam deem the package for him too expensive.
KCCA want more than what Azam offered to UPL record winners SC Villa to land winger Hassan Mubiru’s signature. Reliable sources reveal, Azam paid Villa $130000 for Mubiru.
The Tanzanian giants however remain interested in Ahimbisibwe and are closely monitoring the situation.
Ahimbisibwe has a year left on his two year employment contract he signed with KCCA FC at the start of the just concluded campaign.
He finished as the UPL top scorer last term with 14 league goals and a season before he netted 16 goals when he was featuring for URA FC, finishing just three goals behind the 2024/25 golden boot winner, Allan Okello.
Ahimbisibwe began his career at Synergy before moving to Nyamityobora and later transferred to UPDF and then URA.
