He reflected on life’s changes, saying he will always carry Stade Tunisien in his heart while wishing them success in the future.
This landmark transfer sees Mugisha Bonheur heading to Egyptian club Al Masry. Reports reveal he could be traded for a record-setting $350,000, equating to approximately RWF 505,841,017.50. This historic move positions him as one of the most expensive Rwandan footballers to date.

Playing as a defensive midfielder, he impressively scored 5 goals over the season.
The athlete’s journey began at Heroes FC before progressing to Mukura VS. Later, he joined APR FC, which opened the doors to international opportunities, including a stint with Al Ahli Tripoli in Libya. Following his time at Al Ahli, Bonheur played for Stade Tunisien, marking his departure now as he steps into a new chapter with Al Masry.
