Club career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Born in Buikwe, Uganda, Kasule began his career with lower league clubs Stars Mbiko, Mbiko United, Athletico Club – Ntinda, Nansana United and Kampala Junior Team (KJT).[1]

Wakiso Giants

[edit]

In 2020, he signed with Uganda Premier League club Wakiso Giants FC.[2] On 8 December 2020, Kasule scored his first goal for Wakiso in a 2–2 draw with Kyetume FC.[3]

Kasule was given the squad number 10 for the 2022–23 season, and was one of the top players in Uganda scoring five goals and assisting six times during the first half of the season.[4]

During January 2023, Kasule joined Turkish side Ankara Keçiörengücü, appearing for the club's U19 side. The move only lasted a month as he had previously signed a pre-contract with New York Red Bulls.[5]

New York Red Bulls

[edit]

On 30 March 2023, Kasule's move to New York was finalized, as he signed with MLS Next Pro side New York Red Bulls II.[2] On 26 May 2023, Kasule scored his first goal for the club, converting a penalty kick in a 2–1 victory over Huntsville City FC.[6] Kasule continued in fine form, and during July 2023 he was awarded the MLS Next Pro Player of the Month award. During the month, he netted five goals and had one assist in five matches.[7] At the conclusion of his first season with New York, he was named to the league's “Best XI” for the 2023 season.

On 30 August 2023, Kasule was signed on a short-term agreement ahead of a match against the New England Revolution.[8] Kasule would make his debut for the New York Red Bulls, coming on for Dru Yearwood in the 63rd-minute as the Red Bulls lost 1–0.[9][10]

On 20 March 2024, Kasule scored his first goal of the season for New York Red Bulls II in a 5–1 victory over Hudson Valley Hammers in the first round of the U.S. Open Cup.[11] On 6 April 2025, Kasule scored his first goal of the season in a 3–2 victory over Chicago Fire FC II.[12] On 4 June 2025, he scored three goals in a 5–2 victory over Crown Legacy FC.[13]

International career

[edit]

In September 2023, Kasule received his first call-up to the Uganda national team for a 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match against Niger on 7 September. However, he did not feature in the match.[14]
