Ghanian Premier League giants Asante Kotoko have announced the capture of Uganda Cranes striker Steven Desse Mukwala.

Mukwala, a former UPL top scorer, joins Asante Kotoko on a two-year deal with an option to extend another year.

He has been a free agent after ending his spell with Uganda Premier League side URA FC.

The striker earlier bid farewell to the Tax Collectors, a side he joined two years back after ending stay at Maroons where he was on loan from Vipers.

He becomes the third Ugandan to sign for Asante Kotoko who previously had Joseph Ochaya and George Abege.

He is a big addition for the Porcupine Warriors as they target a place in the CAF Champions League groups.
