Stade Tunisien midfielder Bonheur Mugisha is poised to leave the club, with a move to Egyptian Premier League side Al Masry expected to be finalised in the coming days.
The Rwandan international is anticipated to make his final appearance for the Tunis-based outfit this Sunday, when Stade Tunisien face Espérance Sportive de Tunis in the Tunisian Super Cup final — a high-stakes match that could mark the end of Mugisha’s time in the club’s colours.
After a spell marked by consistent performances and a growing presence in the heart of midfield, Mugisha has attracted interest from abroad, with Al Masry reportedly winning the race for his signature.
The deal is understood to be in its final stages, and the move to the Port Said club now appears imminent.
Mugisha’s departure signals a notable loss for Stade Tunisien, who will now look to reshuffle their midfield options ahead of the new domestic campaign.
The 24-year-old has established himself as a dynamic and reliable player, contributing both defensively and in build-up play.
His potential swan song against Espérance adds an emotional layer to Sunday’s showdown, as fans prepare to bid farewell to one of the team’s key figures.
While neither club has officially confirmed the transfer, internal sources suggest the player has agreed personal terms with Al Masry and will travel to Egypt for his medical immediately after the Super Cup fixture.
The move comes as Al Masry continues to reinforce its squad with an eye on continental competitions and a stronger finish in the Egyptian top flight.
For Mugisha, it represents a new chapter and an opportunity to test himself in one of North Africa’s most competitive leagues.
Sunday’s match, therefore, not only carries the weight of silverware but also marks a turning point in Mugisha’s career.
Should the transfer proceed as expected, it will close a meaningful chapter in Stade Tunisien’s recent history — one shaped in part by Mugisha’s energy, vision, and professionalism.
Stade Tunisien supporters will now hope their team can send him off on a high with a trophy, as the club prepares for a future without the influential midfielder at its core.
