APR FC management, led by Chairman Brig Gen Déo Rusanganwa, have firmly denied reports linking the Rwandan giants with Nigerian goalkeeper Olorunleke Oluwasegun Ojo, who had been rumored to be on the club’s transfer radar following his exit from Welwalo Adrigat University FC, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

Speaking on the speculation, Rusanganwa dismissed the reports as unfounded, questioning the credibility of the claims.

“That goalkeeper is just rumors how can APR really sign a keeper who was released by a team ranked 18th in the Ethiopian University Championship, Welwalo Adrigat University FC?” he said.

The denial puts to rest growing speculation surrounding the Super Eagles goalkeeper’s future, after several online reports suggested APR FC were preparing a move for the Nigerian international.

Olorunleke, who was part of Nigeria’s squad to the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Côte d’Ivoire, has continued to attract attention due to his national team status, despite uncertainty surrounding his club career in recent months.

APR FC remain one of Rwanda’s most successful clubs, and the management’s statement makes it clear that no negotiations or plans exist regarding the signing of the Nigerian shot-stopper.
