Shabani, 32, has struggled to impress in the Libyan Premier League since he joined Al Taawon in August 2023, reuniting with his former AS Kigali teammate Haruna Niyonzima at the club.<\/p>\n

The player and his employers opted to mutually part company, with the former considering a return to AS Kigali who see him as one of key figures to save their season amid their abysmal form that shaped the club recently.<\/p>\n

Besides AS Kigali, Shaban previously had successful spells with Burundian football giants Vital’O FC as well as Amagaju, Bugesera and Rayon Sports in Rwanda.<\/p>\n
