Farouk Miya has dominated the length and breath of the pitch with his potent sting courtesy of incredible goals buoyed with solo runs that split open any mean defence as he immediately grew in stature.

Farouk Miya is fast becoming an indispensable member of the Ugandan team as players of his persuasion are a premium commodity on the market, especially in National team.Miya has become the creative hub through which tempo and the majority of the teams attacking endevours are channeled through making a strong presence and creating a niche for himself.

He has been at the heart of transformation at Vipers and instead of relying upon the usual direct economy Miya has been tempered with poise and delicacy needless to say both coach Micho and the fans love him as his stroke of genious in every game he has played.
