Cheikh Djibril Ouattara extends APR FC contract until 2028

Burkina Faso international Cheikh Djibril Ouattara has signed a two-year contract extension with Armee patriotique rwandaise Football Club (APR FC), keeping him at the Rwandan club until 2028.

The 27-year-old striker’s new deal was officially announced on Thursday, 5 November 2026.

Ouattara joined the military club in January 2025 after leaving JS Kabylie and has since established himself as an important member of the squad. He was appointed APR FC captain in July.

The forward was the leading scorer in the BK Pro League during the 2025-2026 season, finishing with 18 goals. He also played a key role in APR FC’s performances in domestic competitions.

The extension underlines the Rwandan club’s intention to retain one of its principal attacking players. Ouattara will now continue representing APR FC for the next two seasons.
