Rwanda international Innocent Nshuti has joined Azerbaijan Premier League outfit Sabail FK on a six-month deal. Nshuti, 27, was released by American third tier side One Knoxville FC on December 1, 2024, after failing to impress the club which he left without registering a single league goal in their books. The club opted against renewing Nshuti’s contract which expired in December but his fine form with Amavubi was enough for the Azerbaijani club to sign him.
