English coach Stephen Constantine has been appointed Rwanda’s head coach for a second spell after signing a two-year contract running until March 2028.

The 63-year-old returns to the role he previously held between May 2014 and January 2015.

“The Federation calls upon all stakeholders, partners, supporters, and football fans to unite behind the national team as we embark on this important and transformative journey.”
