Croatian coach Kuze quits Rwanda
Josip Kuze
Josip Kuze signed a contract with Rwanda until 2010
Croatian coach Josip Kuze has quit the Rwanda national football team to take over the Japanese J-League side JEF United Chiba.

"I've spent two wonderful months in Rwanda but I could not reject the Japanese offer," Kuze said.

"This invitation was a big surprise for me; and my departure has been friendly," Kuze added.

Kuze signed a three-year contract with the Japanese side reportedly worth around US$400,000 dollars per season.

The 54-year-old, who replaced German Michael Nees last October, led the Amavubi in six matches in which they managed four victories, one defeat and one draw.

He is a former defender and coach of Croatia's current national champions Dinamo Zagreb.
