Following a sensational year for Vipers attacking midfielder Farouk Miya, he has earned a move to Belgium giants Standard Liege but only on a six months loan deal.
Although media reports including the club’s official website indicates a permanent deal worth $ 400,000 has been agreed, According to Kawowo Sports, the deal is a six months loan for which the Belgium side has parted $ 100,000 in exchange.
However, the move will be permanent subject to the players’ performance in the six months and that will take the total amount to $ 400,000. Miya has enjoyed arguably his best year in a youthful career netting 13 goals for the national team including three against Togo in the FIFA World Cup qualifiers as well as lifting the CECAFA Senior Challenge Cup in December.
In addition, the Cranes CHAN skipper won the 2014/15 Uganda Premier League crown with his club; the club’s first trophy in five years.
The 19 year old who is currently with the national team at the 2016 Africa Nations Championship (CHAN) finals is expected to link up with his new team after the tournament. The ten times Belgian champions currently lie sixth with 31 points after 22 games on the 16 team log.
