In 20 games in all competitions, he netted one goal and had no assists. His USL 1 statistics were 12 games, 0 goal and 0 assist.<\/p>\n<p>The move of the Rwanda international to US was not bad considering the fact that he had excelled with APR for five seasons. Pro connect Agency, a FIFA licensed player agency based in US with Rwanda&#8217;s Emmanuel Tuyishimire as their scout brokered the deal for Nshuti on January 31.<\/p>\n<p>This deal was not Nshuti&#8217;s first foreign contract. He joined Tunisian outfit on July 21, 2018 but returned to APR FC a year later because things didn&#8217;t go well.<\/p>\n<p>Despite his lacklustre performance at club level, Nshuti was on good form in the national team.<\/p>\n<p>He scored three goals, including the winner against Nigeria in Uyo as Rwanda lost the 2025 AFCON ticket to Benin on goal difference.<\/p>\n<p>He was among the top performers in the AFCON qualifiers as opposing coaches such as Augustine Eguavoen appreciated his talent.<\/p>\n<p>What is the next step of Nshuti?<\/p>\n<p>The striker marketed himself well as far as Amavubi is concerned and that alone is a perfect avenue for him to be spotted by teams.<\/p>\n<p>So far, South Africa&#8217;s Marumo Gallants have expressed interest in him. Unconfirmed reports indicate that a host of clubs in Tunisia where he previously featured are on his heels.<\/p>\n<p>One team which could potentially swoop for Nshuti is Yanga SC. The Tanzanian giants are looking for a striker and with their financial ability, they can go for the Rwanda striker.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, he could also stay in the 3rd League as his agency could work out something good for him.<\/p>\n<p>A move to APR could not be totally ruled out. The Army Club need a goal scorer. With Mbaoma out if form and Mamadou Sy yet to adapt, Nshuti can fill the void. It could be Nshuti&#8217;s third stint with the club since 2016.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Rwanda<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Rwanda.
