Uganda Rugby Fans Wait as Clubs Chase Final Signings.

Uganda Rugby’s 2026 season kicks off on 7 February, and the transfer window stays open until 30 January, keeping everyone guessing until the last moment. Many clubs have strengthened, but few can honestly say they have signed every player they targeted, with some deals still in talks and others collapsing late.

Coaches are focusing on fixing clear weaknesses (like set-piece power and playmaking) rather than just chasing big names, yet most squads still feel one or two signings short of “complete.” That uncertainty is exactly what is driving fan excitement: every rumour, teaser post, and training photo could signal a late marquee arrival or a shock departure.

For supporters, the suspense is part of the drama. Team sheets on opening weekend will feel like reveal shows, finally answering who signed where and which clubs turned ambition into real contracts, but until the window closes, the entire league lives in that tense space between hope, fear, and possibility.
