Vipers SC forward Erick Kenzo Kambale has officially completed his transfer to Libyan Premier League side Alittihad Misurata SC, the Ugandan club announced today.
The 25-year-old Congolese striker, who had an impressive run with Vipers, is set to begin a new chapter in his career with the Libyan side.
The deal comes after days of speculation, with The Nerve Africa earlier reporting that the agreement had been reached a few days ago.

Kambale’s move marks a significant step for both the player and Alittihad Misurata, as the Libyan club looks to bolster their attacking options for the new season.
Before joining Vipers, he played for Sudanese powerhouse Al-Merreikh SC, where he scored three goals in six games. He previously featured for Uganda’s Express FC, netting 33 goals in 50 appearances across the league, the Uganda Cup, the CECAFA Kagame Cup, and the CAF Champions League.
The 24-year-old, who is eligible to represent both Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) at the national team level, has yet to play an international match. In 2023, he indicated that Ugandan officials had approached him but said he needed time before making a decision.
