Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>Rayon Sports have parted ways with five players as club looks to revive the squad for the 2024\/25 season.<\/p>\n

The released players include Moroccan forward Youssef Rharb, Senegalese attacker Paul Alon Gomis and Alseny Agogo. Goalkeeper Bonheur Hategikimana and Burundian midfielder Emmanuel Mvuyekure have also been shown exit door.<\/p>\n

While other players were released due to poor performances, Mvuyekure’s departure can be attributed to misconduct as Rayon Sports president Jean Fidele Uwayezu claimed earlier this week.<\/p>\n

The Blues hope to be active when the transfer window opens on July 1, having named a recruitment committee which will handle the transfer business along with the club\u2019s technical staff.<\/p>\n

\u201cPreviously, we have signed unproductive players because we had faith in our coaches who recommended them. This won’t happen again as we are setting up a special recruitment team,” Uwayezu said.<\/p>\n

Rayon Sports have long shown interest to sign midfielder Muhajiri Hakizimana over the past season. The Rubavu-born, whose contract at Police FC expires on June 30, has in recent days been again linked with a move to the Blues.<\/p>\n

However, Uwayezu dismissed reports and denied any interest in the midfielder. The same applies to Kiyovu skipper Olivier Niyonzima who has also been linked with a return to the club.<\/p>\n

“We will not sign Muhadjiri Hakizimana and Niyonzima Olivier Sefu, we do not want them,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He, however, opened doors to Ugandan winger Joackiam Ojera and Simba SC attacker Leandre Essombe Onana in case they want to return to the club.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Police FC are set to sign Ugandan striker Cromwell Rwothombio as a replacement for Moro Sumaila who has been released.<\/p>\n

Times sport can confirm that the law enforcers have already agreed personal terms with Rwothombio who is a free agent after leaving NEC FC.<\/p>\n

He is expected to sign a two-year contract with Police who hope to beef up their attack ahead of CAF Confederation Cup and the domestic league.<\/p>\n

Rwothombio, 25, rose to prominence in 2019\/20 at Uganda Revenue Authority(URA) FC and also featured for Vipers before he joined NEC FC in 2023.<\/p>\n

He netted nine goals in the 26 games in the 2023\/24 Ugandan Premier League.<\/p>\n
