Ugandan defender Alex Kakuba has signed a two-year contract for an undisclosed fee with Giannina, the Greek Super League club announced Monday.

On a club level he has played the last two seasons with Portuguese side Feirense in 33 matches.

Kakuba has also played for Portuguese teams Estoril, (2014-2015), Covilha (2013-2014), Esperanca de Lagos (2012-2013) and started his career with Uganda's Proline (2010-2012).
