Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>Former Amavubi skipper Haruna Niyonzima is set for a sensational return the Primus National League and Rayon Sports are leading race to sign him, sources have told Times Sport.<\/p>\n

The veteran midfielder\u2019s contract with Libyan Premier League side Al Taawon expired on June 30 and he is currently a free agent as he prepares for his next move.<\/p>\n

Times Sport understands that Rayon Sports have contacted Niyonzima over a potential return to the club he played for between 2006 and 2007 before moving to cross arch rivals APR FC.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, APR have reportedly completed the signing of Malian winger Mohamadou Lamine Bah hours before flying to Paris with the rest of Malian squad for the 2024 Olympic Games.<\/p>\n

Bah, 22, featured for Tunisian Ligue 1 club Olympique Beja in the 2023\/24 season where he made 25 appearances in all competition scoring once and providing three assists.<\/p>\n

APR are also closing in on Ghanaian midfielder Enock Morission. The 24-year-old attacking midfielder is out of contract at Asante Kotoko and initial talks between his representatives and the Rwandan champions have taken place.<\/p>\n

Mukura Victory Sports have also signed right-back Obed Uwumukiza from Muhazi United on a two-year deal. He is set to battle Cedric Kubwimana for the starting berth on the right-side of Mukura’s defense.<\/p>\n

Forward Bienvenue Mugenzi is now a free agent after parting ways with Police FC after one season. Mugenzi played for Kiyovu SC in the 2022\/24 before joining Police.<\/p>\n
