Last season’s Uganda Premier League top scorer Ivan Ahimbisibwe has left KCCA FC for Iraqi side Zakho SC.
Ahimbisibwe who had a year left on his deal at KCCA joins Zakho on a two-year employment contract.
Ahimbisibwe finished as the top scorer in the 2025/26 Uganda Premier League with 14 goals.
A season before he netted 16 goals when he was featuring for URA FC, finishing just three goals behind the 2024/25 golden boot winner, Allan Okello.
Ahimbisibwe began his career at Synergy before moving to Nyamityobora and later transferred to UPDF and then URA.
Tanzania Premier League side Azam FC were also interested in Ahimbisibwe’s signature but opted out due to the huge transfer fee that KCCA demanded.
Zakho Sport Club is an Iraqi professional sports club based in Zakho, Kurdistan Region, Iraq. The club was founded 39 years ago and host their games at a 20000 seater Zakho International Stadium.
Zakho finished ninth on the Iraq Stars League table standings last season with 53 points they garnered in 38 games.
