“Claus (Kagimu) brings technical skills to the football culture here (at Glasgow United 07s). He has adapted to the fast paced nature of the football game in Scotland we also think that with his skills coupled with the pace of the game here can only develop into an excellent footballer.” Kenney revealed.
