As Rayon Sports prepares for the upcoming season, targeting strong performances in both domestic leagues and the CAF Confederation Cup, the club is keen to retain key players under contract, including Bassan\u00e9, whose pace and skill on the flanks were instrumental last season.<\/p>\n
Reports indicate that Bassan\u00e9 approached the team seeking a transfer, with Police FC among the clubs reportedly interested in signing him.<\/p>\n
However, Rayon Sports has made it clear to Bassan\u00e9, who still has one year remaining on his contract, that they will only consider releasing him upon receipt of the stipulated fee of $50,000 (equivalent to over 72 million Rwandan francs).<\/p>\n
Bassan\u00e9 joined Rayon Sports in August 2024 but briefly left the team following the opening matches of the 2024\/25 season, citing unfulfilled contractual agreements by the club. <\/p>\n
After his contractual concerns were addressed, he returned to play a pivotal role in guiding the team to a runner-up finish in the league, a spot in the Peace Cup final, and qualification for the CAF Confederation Cup.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
