Africa-Press<\/a> – Rwanda<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>YOUTHFUL side Nyanza FC have set a target of finishing inside the top five in the 2021\/22 season which is expected to start on September 18. The club has mostly young players in their ranks, some of whom they got from other clubs to give them a chance to shine on a big stage.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur priority is to use young skilled players and help them shine in the topflight league. We will also have some experienced players in the team who can help guide the young ones,\u201d Nyanza FC Secretary General Frederic Ntirenganya said.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, Nyanza FC signed new coach Jean-Paul Muhoza, who has coached clubs like Pipinierre, Etoile d\u2019Est, Unity FC, Amagaju and Dauphin Noir of DR Congo.<\/p>\n

In the 2012\/13 season, Nyanza FC was relegated after finishing in 11th position out of the 12 teams that played in the premier league that season. \u201cOur target this season is to finish inside the top five and also do well in the cup competitions,\u201d Ntirenganya added<\/p>\n

Nyanza FC is a football team located in Busasamana sector, Nyanza district, South Province, Rwanda. The club\u2019s stadium was built around 1956 by the King of Rwanda \u201cMutara III Rudahigwa\u201d while Nyanza Fc was started in 2000.
