Young Ugandan midfielder Ryan Kizito Figo has arrived in Tunisia as he closes in on a move to one of the country’s established football clubs.
Kizito landed in Tunisia today, with reports indicating that he is set to complete a transfer to CS Faxien, also known as Club Sportif Sfaxien. The move is expected to mark another important step in the promising midfielder’s developing career.
The youngster has built his reputation through Uganda’s youth football setup, representing the country at different age-group levels, including the Uganda U17 and U21 teams. His experience with the national youth sides has given him valuable exposure and helped position him as one of the young Ugandan players with ambitions of playing football abroad.
If the transfer to CS Faxien is completed, Kizito will also find familiar faces in Tunisia. He is expected to link up with fellow Ugandans Hakim Kiwanuka and Travis Mutyaba, providing him with teammates who understand the demands of adapting to football outside Uganda.
For Kizito, the potential move represents an opportunity to test himself in a new footballing environment while gaining experience in the Tunisian league. A successful spell could also provide a platform for the midfielder to further develop his game and attract greater attention from clubs beyond Tunisia.
The final stages of the transfer are now expected to involve the completion of the necessary formalities before the young midfielder can officially begin his journey with CS Faxien.
