Musongati FC finished runners up behind eventual winners Le Messager Ngozi in the 2019-20 season and Othieno believes they can dethrone the current champions in the forthcoming season.
” My new side finished second last season. I believe through teamwork and determination it is very possible for us to be champions next season.” He added.
Musongati FC finished the season with 56 points from 30 games, four behind Le Messenger FC Ngozi.
They are owned by newly elected Burundi president Evariste Ndyayishimiye and host their home games from Stade Ingoma in Gitega City.
