Rayon Sports President Denies Reports of Robertinho's Dismissal - VIDEO

On Friday, February 28, Twagirayezu Thadee addressed rumors that the Rayon Sports management was dissatisfied with the performance of Brazilian coach Roberto Oliveira Goncalves de Calmo, commonly known as Robertinho.

In an interview with Inyarwanda and TV & Radio 10, the Rayon Sports president clarified that it would be unreasonable to dismiss a coach who currently leads the league. He also emphasized that temporary setbacks in football are normal and that no coach can deliver 100% success all the time.

Twagirayezu Thadee stated: "Robertinho is currently leading the league and has only 12 or 11 games left. Yes, there are times when things don't go well on the pitch, but that is part of football. People who do not analyze football deeply might not understand that."

“We should not expect Robertinho to achieve 100% perfection because he is not competing alone. In the past, we have seen both Rayon Sports and APR FC struggling to win matches in Huye. That means even top teams face challenges."

“The coach prepares his team based on the opponent. Sometimes he wins, sometimes he loses. But today, Robertinho is the one winning the most because he is in first place. It wouldn’t make sense to sack a coach who is leading the league just because some people feel he is not performing well. He has his own approach that is bringing results."

Speculation about Robertinho’s dismissal arose after Rayon Sports drew 1-1 with Amagaju at Huye Stadium. Reports suggested that some club officials were not satisfied with the coach and that he was on the verge of being sacked.

Despite ongoing discussions about Robertinho’s future, Rayon Sports remains at the top of the league and faces a tough challenge ahead. The team is set to play against Gasogi United on March 2, followed by a highly anticipated clash against APR FC on March 9.
