In a statement, AIK Fotboll noted that the 18-year-old agreed on a contract that extends until 31st December 2026.

“With Collins, we get a physically strong fit midfielder who also showed in his club team that he can play as a central midfielder. Collins has been seen live by AIK representatives several times in the league game in Kenya, most recently in early March 2022 when chief scout Tobias Ackerman was down in Africa and saw him on site, says the men’s team’s sports director Henrik Jurelius,” read a statement on the club’s official website.

For his part, Sichenje said: “Coming to AIK is like a dream for me. I could not have come to a better club at this stage of my career. I know both Otieno and Meja who play in the team and both have said very good things about the club to me.”

The midfielder becomes the third Kenyan to move to AIK after Eric Ouma and Henry Meja.

Sichenje who was born on 19th September, 2003 left Green Commandos SC from Kakamega in 2019 and signed a contract with AFC Leopards SC.

On 13th March, 2021, Sichenje made his debut for Kenya’s national team when they hosted South Sudan (1-0) at Nyayo National Stadium in Nairobi.
