Allan Okello's Transition to AS FAR Rabat
In a significant move within the football world, Ugandan international Allan "Star Boy" Okello has joined the ranks of Moroccan football giants AS FAR Rabat, marking a new chapter in his athletic career. This transition comes on the heels of a successful yet brief tenure with Young Africans (Yanga SC) in Tanzania. The announcement of his signing was officially made by AS FAR on August 20, 2026, showcasing their commitment to enhancing their squad ahead of the forthcoming season. Okello has signed a three-year contract with the club, which is known for its competitive prowess in the Moroccan Botola Pro league.
Okello's arrival at AS FAR Rabat is not just a personal milestone but also a reflection of his remarkable performance at Yanga SC, where he quickly became a pivotal player. During his time with the Tanzanian club, he made a significant impact, netting 14 goals and providing eight assists, showcasing his ability to adapt seamlessly to the demands of the Premier League football. His last match with Yanga SC was a thrilling encounter, the Kariakoo Derby against rivals Simba SC, which underscored his contributions to the team.
Reuniting with Coach Pedro Gonçalves
This move also brings Okello back together with Portuguese coach Pedro Gonçalves, under whose guidance he flourished at Yanga. Gonçalves played an instrumental role in developing Okello's attacking capabilities, and their established rapport is expected to facilitate a smooth transition as Okello steps into his new role at AS FAR Rabat. The club's social media welcomed him with enthusiasm, emphasizing the collective goal of making the upcoming season memorable. As Okello embarks on this exciting journey, fans and analysts alike will be keenly observing how he adapts to the Moroccan league and continues to elevate his game.
