AFC Leopards Rwandese defender Jonas Paco Nahimana (17) left on Thursday for a two-week trial with United States of America’s Major Soccer League (MSL) side FC Dallas. The 27-year-old goal-scoring centre-half, who joined the den in June 2011, has been instrumental at the club showing a solid defensive display and netting eleven goals in 65 appearances. Speaking to Fever-pitch, coach Luc Eymael expressed his delight at the Rwandese international’s trials invite and wished him all the best. “I am happy for Paco and we wish him all the best. He’ll be out for at least two weeks,” he said.
