The Uganda Cranes earlier scheduled team camp week in Jordan (21st-26th August) has been cancelled.
However, efforts are being made by the Federation to find an alternative friendly match within that period, before facing Ethiopia in the last build up on Sunday 29th August in the Ethiopian city of Bahir Dar.
After that, the team will fly out to Kenya, to take on the hosts in a FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 Qualifier in Nairobi on Thursday 2nd September 2021.
The team will continue with preparations in Uganda until a new schedule is communicated for the trip to Ethiopia.
Uganda plays Kenya away on 2nd September 2021 and will host Mali on 6th September 2021 at the St Mary’s Stadium, Kitende.
Rwanda is the other country in group E.
