Daniel Sserunkuma aka Muzenyi (born 14 December 1993 in Kampala) is a Ugandan footballer who currently plays as a striker for Vipers SC and the Uganda national team (the "Cranes").

Early life

Sserunkuma was born and grew up in the Lubaga division of Kampala district. He attended St. Mary's School in Kitende which has also produced Ugandan players such as David Obua, Eric Obua, Emmanuel Okwi and Ibrahim Juma.

He joined Friends of Football Academy in Uganda at the age of 10. Sserunkuma said he was inspired by Ugandan legend, the late Majid Musisi, who is regarded as the country's best footballer of all time.

Club career

Express

Sserunkuma started playing professional football at Ugandan team Express F.C. in 2008.

Victors

After one year in Express F.C., he moved to rival club Victors FC, where he stayed for the next two years.

Nairobi City Stars

In 2011, Sserunkuma moved to Kenya to join Premier League team Nairobi City Stars.

Gor Mahia

After playing for a year and half for Nairobi City Stars, Sserunkuma then moved to Gor Mahia F.C. in 2012.

In 2013, Sserunkuma played an important role in helping Gor Mahia F.C. clinch the Kenyan Premier League title for the first time since 18 years. He ended the 2012 season with 17 goals and several assists and was named the 2012 KPL player of the year. As Gor Mahia sought to win the national league for the first time in 18 years, it was Sserunkuma who played the pivotal role by scoring in almost all the last 10 games of the 2013 league. Thanks largely to Sserunkuma's goalscoring heroics, Gor Mahia won the league.

In November 2013, Sserunkuma caused a stir in the club by officially handing in a transfer request, expressing his desire to join Armenian Premier League club FC Banants. However, the player was not allowed to leave the club.

In 2014, he was the highest goal scorer in the 2014 Kenyan Premier League season with total of 16 goals scored.

Simba S.C.

In December 2014, Sserunkuma completed a free transfer to Tanzanian giants Simba. He terminated his contract with the club on mutual consent after just five months in the Tanzanian Premier League.

Vipers S.C.

In January 2018, he joined Vipers SC where they formed fierce front three with Milton Karisa and Erisa Ssekisambu ending up winning the league. He also won the boot with 18goals.

• 2018/2019

Playing style

Sserunkuma's physical stature and style of play has been compared to that of Italian legend Gianfranco Zola. His greatest assets are his speed, skills, creative play, powerful shots and great balance.
