Rwandan soccer legend Jimmy Gatete said he missed Rwandans after nearly a decade after he retired.
The 38-year-old arrived in Kigali on Monday, October 10. He is among several other football legends who will grace the official launch of the Legends in Rwanda event gala scheduled for October 12-14.
“I missed Rwandans and the country,” Gatete told journalists upon arrival at Kigali International Airport.
Gatete, a former player for Rayon Sports, APR FC, Mukura Victory Sport and Ethiopian side St Georges, retired from international football in 2013 and ventured into business.
He is especially remembered for the winning goal he scored against Ghana to give Rwanda the first and lone qualification to a big continental tournament, the 2004 Africa Cup of Nations.
