Kampala — The national Under 20 side - the Hippos are to miss the services of key players Caesar Okuthi and Owen in the return leg tie of their Africa Youth Championships tie against Democratic Republic of Congo on May 2.
The first leg ended in a goalless draw.
Okuthi and Kasule will be part of the Cranes side that will face Tanzania's Kilimanjaro Stars in an African Nations Championship tie in Mwanza the next day.
"We shall obviously miss Okhuti and Owen (Kasule) but I have identified the replacements," Hippos coach Jackson Mayanja said.
He emphasized the need for early preparations to forestall any upset from the powerfully built Congolese. Mayanja is expected to give a call up to SC Villa's Emmanuel Okwi and Mike Azira, with Benson Ociti and Piyik Lewin also in the frame.
