A new chapter has opened in the career of Ugandan striker Ivan Ahimbisibwe after completing a permanent move from KCCA FC to Iraqi Premier League outfit Zakho FC.
The experienced forward has signed a two-year contract with the Iraqi club, bringing an end to his time at Lugogo and beginning an exciting challenge in Middle Eastern football.
Ahimbisibwe leaves Uganda having built a reputation as one of the country's most reliable attackers. Throughout his stint at KCCA FC, he consistently demonstrated his eye for goal, intelligent movement, and ability to deliver in crucial moments, qualities that attracted interest from abroad.
His arrival at Zakho FC reflects the club's ambition to reinforce its attacking department ahead of the new campaign. The Iraqi side will be counting on the Ugandan international's experience and goalscoring instincts as they aim to make a strong impression in domestic competitions.
For Ahimbisibwe, the transfer is more than just a change of clubs—it is another opportunity to represent Ugandan football on the international stage and prove himself in a highly competitive league. The move also adds his name to the growing list of Ugandan players pursuing careers outside East Africa.
While KCCA FC part ways with a seasoned striker, the club can look back on his contribution with appreciation. His professionalism, work ethic, and commitment made him an important figure during his stay, and supporters will undoubtedly wish him success in his new surroundings.
With a two-year deal now in place, Ivan Ahimbisibwe begins a fresh journey at Zakho FC, where expectations will be high as he seeks to make an immediate impact and write another successful chapter in his career.
