Career

FK Pohronie

Bimenyimana had joined Slovak Super Liga club FK Pohronie in mid-August 2020, following a prolonged scouting by the club. He signed with the Žiar nad Hronom-based club for two years.[1] He made his league debut at Štadión Antona Malatinského on 15 August 2020 starting in a 1–1 tie against Spartak Trnava. Trnava took the lead in the first ten minutes through Gergely Tumma before Bimenyimana equalised the score and set the final at 1–1 after an hour of play.

He also scored in the next game on 22 August 2020, in an upset home victory against Žilina. He scored the opening goal of the 2–1 win during the first half before being replaced by Patrik Abrahám, due to an injury, after 40 minutes. In the second half, Patrik Iľko equalized but Pohronie re-gained the lead and gained the win through Alieu Fadera.[2] He achieved his last league goal in a 2–2 tie against iClinic Sereď on 19 September and two further goals three days earlier during a Cup fixture against lower division FK Rača.

Following this, Bimenyimana failed to score in nine subsequent matches and departed from the club in January 2021.[3]

Kaizer Chiefs

On 22 August 2022, Bimenyimana signed a two-year contract with South African club Kaizer Chiefs.[4] On 17 September 2022, in his first start for the club, he scored two goals in a 2–1 league match win against Supersport United.
