SC Villa defender Godfrey Walusimbi and Idrissa Kayi of Victor United have joined six-time league champions Rayon Sport on two-year contract deals.

The Ugandan pair will help push for honours on two fronts; national league and MTN Peace Cup, where the Blues have been drawn with Marine in the second round.

Rayon’s Secretary General Olivier Gakwaya told Times Sport yesterday that the players were signed to boost the club’s title ambitions.

"We have recruited the pair to beef up our squad and we now hope that we can push even harder for a trophy this season,” Gakwaya said, before adding that the club is still in the transfer market.

The Blues, who have collected 24 points from 12 league games, are third on the league table behind APR and Etincelles.
