Club Career

Born in the district of Wakiso, Kizito began his football career with local club Vipers S.C. in 2009, at the age of 15. During his first professional season with the Vipers in 2010, the team won the Ugandan Super League for the first time ever. He remained with the club for a further two seasons.

Leixoes

In summer 2012, Kizito signed with Portuguese second division side Leixoes, becoming the first Ugandan footballer to play for a Portuguese team. He made his debut for the Matosinhos club on 16 September against Leca in a Taca de Portugal second round tie. He scored one goal as his team won 4–1. He followed up with goals in the Taca da Liga and Segunda Liga, against Vitoria de Setubal and Braga B. His goal scoring continued during the next several games with goals against Naval in domestic league action. His goal scoring attracted interest from Porto. Kizito, however, suffered a goal-scoring drought as he scored only two goals from October to the end of the season. Despite this drought, he helped his side finish third in the league, five points short of Arouca, who finished second and be promoted to the top flight. During his first season with Leixoes, he made 30 appearances and scored seven goals.
