He said, "Mbirizi is a good player who was appreciated by coach Gilbert Kanyankole Yaounde.”The deal means Mbirizi rejoins his former coach Yaounde and teammate defensive midfielder Yusuf Murekezi, who signed for the old giants early this week."We are in talks with a few other players like Ali Mousa, Jean Marie Girukwishaka and Michel Girukwishaka and if everything goes well, we will sign them before the upcoming season,” added Sendenge.Mbirizi was pivotal in Vital’O’s triumph at the Cecafa Kagame Cup club competition in Darfur, Sudan this year. He scored the winning goal in their 2-0 victory over Rwanda’s APR in the final, sealing the Burundian side’s first ever Cecafa title.
