Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>Rwanda Premier League newcomers Etoile de l’Est have appointed Maurice Nshimiyimana as their new head coach.<\/p>\n

The experienced tactician, popularly known as “Maso”, joined the Ngoma-based club on a one-year deal.<\/p>\n

He takes over from Francois Nsengiyumva who has been sacked after being suspended in February this year.<\/p>\n

Nshimiyimana’s major task is to help the club to at least maintain their top flight status in the 2023\/24 season after they were relegated during the 2021\/22 campaign.<\/p>\n

He previously served as assistant coach of Musanze FC and Police FC in 2014 before being named as the interim coach of the latter in 2019.<\/p>\n

The astute coach also had stints with Rayon Sports as assistant head coach during the 2016\/2017 season.<\/p>\n
