The Zambia national team got a much needed boost today with the arrival in camp of key striker Given Singuluma.

Singuluma returned home this past weekend after a 2 -week trial spell with Finland champions FC Inter Turku.

The Zanaco strikers return has brought some relief for coach Herve Renard as the squad gears for its final stage of training camp ahead of its participation in this months inaugural Caf Africa Nations Championship (CHAN) in Cote d’Ivoire.

Singuluma scored two important goals for Zambia in their CHAN final round qualifiers, one each in the teams 2-1 away and 1-0 home wins over Angola in November and December respectively.

Until Singuluma’s arrival, Renard has struggled to find a potent striker for CHAN especially after Roger Kola became ineligible after signing with Helsingborg of Sweden last month.

Also in training today was defender Elijah Tana who was amongst 15 players who missed Tuesdays first day of training camp before reporting today, Wednesday.

19 players are in camp following the arrival of 9 call-ups by press time on day 2 of CHAN training camp in Lusaka with another 6 yet to report.

  1. Christopher katongo is playing very good football here. Over the wkend he demolished Werde Bremen´s mid-field and created two goals for his club. Bremen lost 2-1. He is representing Zambia.

  2. But where is Moses Sichone? The Guy is Zambian and is playing here in Germany!! Is he not needed for such Games ku Zambia?

  3. I like the small print.

    “An unidentified fellow Zambia national team player”. Nice one. People can`t be bothered can they? :d

    Bruder L Man I have sent you an e-mail. Have a look.

  4. So these chaps missed the first day of training 😕 Benze kumwa shake shake ya last kaili they know they wiil miss it.(:|

  5. Who is that chap using Zimandola one? #14. Thats a trade mark mwana watch out before i proceed with a legal intervention.

  6. The French must be sweating from head to toes, he jumping on coaching Zambia National Team is walkover job. Sooner than later he will call it quits. You mean our soccer leagues have very few strikers. No wonder our the standard of our game is going down. As for English soccer lovers its a relief that SuperSport will start televising the games. On my part, I enjoy watching local leagues especially watching City Yamoto and its politiking. Down South I enjoy watching Kasco Rangers and some other small teams. They have players who have the speed and stamina.

  7. Viva the local league! Nchanga Rangers 4 life. If I had way, I’d wear a Tana, Kelvin Chisha or Israel Mwanza replica jersey. Well done Katongo.

  8. The sports window it takes time to be updated. Why shud we be reading singuluma 4 one week? Plz update as often as possible!
