Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>Musanze FC head coach Sosthe\u0300ne Habimana has said that he has a group of players ready enough to compete for the domestic league title next season.<\/p>\n

The Northern Province-based team finished in the third place during the 2023\/24 season just behind champions APR FC and Rayon Sports. It was the club\u2019s best performance ever since it was established but the tactician insists Habimana insists his side deserves a better position this season as he vows to come back stronger and fight for the title.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll the teams have a goal to improve this season. When you go and win more games than you did the previous season, I think that’s what gives you a good result that can lead to the title,” the coach said.<\/p>\n

Musanze FC has started preparations for the 2024\/25 top tier league season which kicks off on August 18. They play Rayon Sports in a friendly match at Ubworoherane Stadium on Saturday, July 27.<\/p>\n

It will be a good opportunity for the coach to test his group, especially new players who joined the club in the summer transfer window.<\/p>\n

“The players that we signed are there, we are still training to see how we can add fresh blood in the team, replacing those who have left, but I would say that the training is going well now,” Habimana said.<\/p>\n

“We want to add new blood so that at least our performance will be better than what we saw in the last season.\u201d<\/p>\n

Musanze FC will commence the new league campaign on August 18 when they welcome Muhazi United to Ubworoherane Stadium.<\/p>\n
