Chembo Ready for Zesco United Challenge

Zesco United interim head coach Tenant Chembo has declared himself ready to lead the Ndola side.

Chembo was last week tasked to coach Zesco for the next six months following the resignation of Wedson Nyirenda who has joined HCB Songo of Mozambique.

In an interview, Chembo acknowledged that coaching Zesco was a huge challenge.

The ex-Ndola Lime Hotspurs and Indeni trainer said he was indebted to the club executive for giving him the mandate to coach Zesco.

” It’s a big challenge. Life is all about challenges and I am ready for this challenge,” Chembo said. “I have worked with the team for some time now and I have a good relationship with the players,” he added.

“I know we have a task to win the league,” Chembo said.

Chembo, who was Nyirenda’s deputy, is being assisted by Alfred Lupiya and goalkeeping coach Stephen Mwansa.

Zesco finished third in the 2012 FAZ Super Division campaign.
