Africa-Press – Rwanda. The football season in Europe and elsewhere across the world came to an end over the weekend, marking yet another campaign of excitement, disappointment, thrillers and individual exploits.
Some Rwandan players abroad have had an outstanding season with many of them being the fulcrum which their teams are built around.
Times Sport brings to you the best five Rwanda Players Abroad this season.
Bonheur Mugisha (Stade Tunisien, Tunisia)
Bonheur Mugisha took the Tunisian Ligue 1 by storm on his debut season as he established himself as one of the best holding midfielders in the Northern African league during the 2024/25 season.
The Stade Tunisien midfield anchor had a superb season playing 27 league games, and scoring 5 goals which is impressive for a defensive midfielder.
He played 90 minutes in 26 games and it was only the final game of the season against AS Soliman which he came on as a 46th minute substitute.
Mugisha has really shown that Rwandan players have quality and they can compete with the best at the highest level.
He was also instrumental as Stade Tunisien reached the Cup final.
Samuel Guelette (Raal La Louviere, Belgium)
The enterprising central midfielder was instrumental as Raal La Louviere qualified for the Belgian Jupiler Pro League which is the top tier.
Gueulette made 26 league appearances, scoring twice and providing 1 assist. He amassed a total playing time of 1867 minutes.
