Uganda Cranes midfielder William Luwagga Kizito has moved from Romanian outfit Politehnica Lasi to join Kazakhstan giant FC Shakhter Karagandy.

FC Shakhter Karagandy is one of the giant clubs in Kazakhstan and has been champion of the Kazakhastan Premier League twice in 2011 and 2012. The club also once qualified to play in the Europa League group stage, in 2013-14 season.
