The Burundian coach joins from Kiyovu Sports FC, where he delivered impressive performances this season despite the club facing financial difficulties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With only a few months remaining on his contract, Haringingo makes the switch following Rayon Sports\u2019 decision to part ways with Bruno Ferry, who was dismissed after just three months in charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rayon Sports\u2019 leadership has set clear ambitions of winning the league title, last secured in 2019 or lifting at least one domestic trophy this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The team is currently preparing for the resumption of the Rwanda Premier League, with a Matchday 26 fixture against Gicumbi FC scheduled for Saturday at 6:00 PM at Kigali Pel\u00e9 Stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Haringingo previously coached Rayon Sports in 2023, when he led the club to victory in the Rwandan Peace Cup. He takes over a side currently sitting fourth in the league standings with 42 points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
