He has greatly played club football in Sweden, among other clubs he has played for includes Mjallby AIF, Kalmar FF, Varborgs BolS, Helsingborg IF... Sporting activities in Uganda are currently at a standstill due to the persistent COVID-19 pandemic that also led to the ending of the Uganda Premier League 2019/2020 season prematurely.
