Watambala’s Future at Vipers Hangs by a Thread

Watambala’s Future at Vipers Hangs by a Thread

As the curtains begin to close on another busy transfer window, Abdul Karim Watambala has emerged as one of the hottest names on the local scene, and for good reason.

The midfielder, whose contract with Vipers SC expires at the end of June 2025, is reportedly considering his next move, with sources close to the player hinting that a departure from Kitende could be on the cards.

Having enjoyed a stellar 2023/24 campaign, Watambala was arguably the engine of the Vipers midfield.

His consistent performances played a crucial role in the Venoms’ domestic double, lifting both the Uganda Premier League and the Stanbic Uganda Cup.

With maturity, vision, and unmatched composure on the ball, the 25-year-old has developed into one of the finest midfielders in the league.

But as is often the case in football, great performances don’t go unnoticed.

Azam FC Circle with Intent

Reports indicate that Tanzanian Premier League giants Azam FC have already opened discussions with the player’s camp, presenting what is believed to be a very attractive offer.

The project at Azam, coupled with the financial muscle and growing East African appeal of the Tanzanian league, could prove tempting for Watambala.

For Vipers, the writing is on the wall. The club is keen to retain one of its most decorated players, but they will need to move quickly and decisively to fend off suitors.

A contract renewal is said to be on the table, but negotiations could get complicated with outside interest intensifying.

A Career on the Rise

Watambala is no stranger to success. Since breaking into the senior team from St. Mary’s SS Kitende, he has lifted four Uganda Premier League titles and four Uganda Cups, a remarkable haul for a player still in his mid-20s.

His resurgence in form also earned him a recall to the Uganda Cranes, where he featured in recent international friendlies against Cameroon and The Gambia in Morocco.

It marked his return to the national setup for the first time since 2019, when he impressed under then-head coach Johnathan McKinstry as Uganda won the CECAFA Kagame Cup.

From a young midfield prospect to a mature, title-winning leader, Watambala’s evolution has been a joy to watch. But it’s clear his ambitions may be reaching beyond the borders of Uganda.

What Next for the Venoms’ Midfielder?

With just a few weeks left before his contract ends, the ball is now in Watambala’s court.

Whether he opts for a fresh challenge abroad or decides to extend his stay at Kitende, one thing is certain, he’ll remain a key figure wherever he plays.

Vipers fans will be hoping for good news, but in the world of football, sentiment often takes a back seat to opportunity.
