Micho threatens to resign

Uganda head coach Milutin 'Micho' Sredojevic is set to step down from his role at the helm of the Cranes in the next 48 hours.

The Serbian tactician, who has been in charge of the Cranes since May 2013, has been considering the option for sometime now amidst offers from across the world.

In an exclusive interview with supersport.com, Micho said: "Due to non-payment of my salary, my contract with Uganda is null and void practically not valid which gives me a chance to go wherever I want."

According to some close sources, the 47-year old is believed to have received two good offers including one from the Middle East and another from southern Africa, however, he said there are "many from all over the world."

Micho guided Uganda to Afcon 2017 in Gabon breaking a 39-year old jinx much to the amusement of the entire East African nation winning over the hearts of many across the continent.

However, he feels that the burden of continuous unpaid salary has become too much for him to carry and he could be on his way out in the next two days.

He revealed that he will make an announcement in the next 48 hours even though sections of the football fraternity in Uganda feel that this is one of those antics to get attention.

One frustrated football official who chose to remain unanimous said, "He did this after Uganda defeated Comoros to qualify for Afcon 2017 and did it again in Abu Dhabi just before the Cranes flew to Gabon so it is unfortunate that it is happening again."

Micho is linked with a return to the troubled Orlando Pirates, a side he coached in 2006 and is believed to be in close contact with the club chairman Dr Irvin Khoza.
