Fiacre Ntwali (born 25 September 1999) is a Rwandan soccer player who plays as a goalkeeper for Kaizer Chiefs in the South African Premier Division.
Ntwali was born in Musanze District. He made a journey to Kigali, where he joined APR's academy and played for Intare. He also spent time on loan at Marines.
After some time with AS Kigali, Ntwali became a free agent in the summer of 2023. There were talks about moving to the Linafoot. Meanwhile, Tim Sukazi who owns South African club TS Galaxy allegedly watched Ntwali play against Benin during the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualification. Nonetheless, TS Galaxy was the club to sign Ntwali. Here, he gradually won the goalkeeper spot. From 18 starts he kept 8 clean sheets. TS Galaxy also finished a record 6th in the league. In the summer of 2024 he was signed by one of South Africa's Big 3, Kaizer Chiefs who wanted to strengthen the goalkeeper position.
