The former Hearts of Oak striker has spent most of his playing career in Sweden after departing Ghana for greener pastures.

He has had stints with BK Hacken, Falkenbergs FF and is now in the books of the newly promoted third division club, Ariana FC.

"First of all, I am happy and delighted to be ready for Ariana FC. The choice was not at all difficult as I have been reading about the club for a while now. Malmö is a beautiful city and Ariana has fantastic supporters”

“I now want to work hard and make a strong impression during the club's journey forward. Ariana is right now the best place for me to continue developing as a professional soccer player”

“The cohesion in the team is incredible and I look forward to scoring as many goals as possible to take the team to new heights,"

"I also want to express great gratitude to our coach Agim Sopi and sports director Omid Hushmand for their desire to have me here. I look forward to a successful season without injuries or mishaps and ask for the support of all the wonderful supporters throughout the year." He said.

Sporting director Omid Hushmand added: "Kizito is an exciting player who we believe in a lot. He has qualities that we will greatly benefit from in the offense”

“In him we get a powerful player who works over large areas and with his presence he becomes important for us in the offensive penalty area”

“It gives us a tool in the attack that we lacked a bit before, where we now get a player who really wants to be in the box. With all his qualities, Kizito will be a perfect complement to the other attacking players we have."
