Etoile striker Samuel Chukwudi Nwosu is hopeful that his side can stay in the league despite being in the relegation zone with three games left to end the season.

The Nigerian attacker has been arguably the best forward in the league this season netting twelve goals despite his side being 15th on the league table.

Nwosu netted a brace over the weekend against Marines FC to take his tally in the league this season to 12 and trails AS Kigali's Hussein Shabani by one goal.

The talented striker is confident he can help the Ngoma based club to maintain their top flight status this campaign.

"I am confident we will remain in Premier League at all costs, the championship is not yet over and you can see the possibilities in the home games," Nwosu told Times Sport

"Personally, I will say it has been a tremendous campaign and I wish to continue to help my team until the last whistle."

Etoile will host Espoir on Saturday in match day 27 of the Rwanda premier league.
