Known for his defensive discipline, work rate, and ability to contribute in attack from the left flank, Ndahiro has become a reliable option for the club as they continue to compete on both domestic and continental fronts.
Securing the defender’s future is expected to be a key part of Vipers’ plans as they prepare for another demanding campaign that includes league, cup, and continental commitments.
Before joining Vipers, Ndahiro had spells with SC Villa, URA FC, and Rwanda’s Police FC, building a wealth of experience that has served him well throughout his career.
With the player eager to commit his future to the club, an agreement is expected to be reached in the coming days, further strengthening Vipers’ squad ahead of the new season.
