Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>Swedish third tier side Sandvikens is in talks to sign striker Lague Byiringiro from APR FC, Times Sport has learnt.<\/p>\n

The 22-year old Rwanda international could find himself playing alongside midfielder Yannick Mukunzi at the Swedish club with the military side said to have reached a verbal agreement to sell him.<\/p>\n

Should the transfer materialize, Byringiro will join the club in February.<\/p>\n

The striker, who was promoted to APR\u2019s first team in January 2018, previously attended trials with Swiss side FC Zu\u0308rich in April 2021 after the club showed interest in his services.<\/p>\n

The club was ready to meet the military side\u2019s staggering \u20ac130,000 price tag to secure his signing but the deal fell through after he failed to pass the pro trials after two weeks training with the club.<\/p>\n

Byiringiro has been a key figure in APR\u2019s recent fortunes, having helped the club win four league titles. He was part of the team that set a historical record of going 50 league matches unbeaten between July 2019 and February 2021.<\/p>\n

At 20, he was first called up to the senior national team that played Ivory Coast during a Africa Cup of Nations qualifier in March 2019.<\/p>\n

He made his senior international debut on 26 January 2021, as a substitute to then injured Bertrand Iradukunda, during Rwanda\u2019s 3\u20132 group stage victory over Togo in the 2020 African Nations Championship.<\/p>\n
