Asike has spent two different spells with Tusker FC over the past six years and has two Premier League titles, as well as an FKF Cup title.
He was also named Best Defender last season as he led the Brewers to another Premier League title.
Asike made his last appearance for Tusker in the FKF Premier League match against the Vihiga Bullets in Nairobi, where he unfortunately sustained an injury that required minor surgery.
