The midfielder is back in Northern Ireland and playing football 'with a smile on my face again'
Dungannon Swifts midfielder Gael Bigirimana says he is "loving football again" after securing a return to the Irish League.
Bigirimana spent six months on the sidelines before making an SOS call to Dungannon boss Rodney McAree. "I just stayed there which was tough. I stayed fit. I could train with the team but couldn't play official matches. The Swifts boss joked: "That was as crazy a phone call I ever got, by the way. When I got a phone call from Bigi in Tanzania saying he wanted to come and play for Dungannon Swifts."
