Zambia will now play one instead of two friendly games away to Saudi Arabia next week.
This is after an administrative delay with the teams’ departure from Lusaka that has seen uncertainty swirl around the trip over the last 48 hours.
The delay has also forced the cancellation of the first friendly game against hosts Saudi Arabia in Dammam on December 1.
FAZ spokesperson Erick Mwanza said in a statement that Zambia will play only one game on December 5 in Dammam.
“The team, which was initially listed for the Saturday 1st December 2012 flight at 21:20hours, will now leave on Sunday at the same time and arrive in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia early Monday,” Mwanza said in a statement.
Renard’s team comprising mainly of home-based players will have four foreign-based players in the travelling party.
The players are goalkeeper Luciano Pasquini of ISM Academy in Italy, Chisamba Lungu of FC Ural in Russia and clubless defender Kampamba Chintu.
Defender Aaron Katebe of Zimbabwean club Hwange FC completes the foreign quartet in the team.
