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 side until 2028.

The 27-year-old striker’s new deal was announced on Thursday, 5 November 2026. Ouattara has captained APR FC since July and joined the military club in January 2025 after leaving JS Kabylie.

He has since become an important member of the squad, establishing himself as one of the team’s leading attacking players.

Ouattara finished as the BK Pro League’s top scorer in the 2025-2026 season with 18 goals. He also played a part in APR FC’s performances in domestic competitions.

The extension underlines APR FC’s intention to retain their Burkina Faso forward, who will continue to represent the club for the next two seasons.
