Herve Renard has recalled Fwayo Tembo to the Zambia team.

Fwayo has been called up for Zambia March 24 trip to face Lesotho in a 2014 world cup Group D qualifier in Maseru.

The striker from Romanian side Astra Giurgiu replaces Jacob Mulenga of Dutch side FC Utrecht.

Mulenga has withdrawn from the team due on medical grounds by Utrecht.

Fwayo makes the team after earlier being omitted from the initial 19-member team that has now grown to 23 following Wednesdays new call-ups.

Meanwhile, Power Dynamos midfielder Kennedy Mudenda has also been recalled two years after he last played for Zambia.

Also back is 21-year-old ex-Afrisports defender Aaron Katebe of FC Platinum in Zimbabwe who made his debut in a 0-0 draw against Angola in May, 2012.

Renard has also handed two debut callups for Zanaco midfielder Fackson Kapumbu and Nchanga Rangers striker Bonwell Mwape.

    • That Nathan Sinkala should be substitute, lets that Fackson Kapumbu whom we never heard off. Kalaba should be in the center with Mukuka , ku left wing Kennedy Mudenda. And without Sunzu its automatic to call Katebe.
      Miss an exciting goalkeeper, what about the Italian boy?

  1. Fwayo Tembo!! I remember this name some controversial past
    issues come to my mind….good additional though let HR call up players who are featuring regularly in their first teams and not just warming the benches at their respective clubs.

  2. Last time he appeared to be over weight, I hope he is in good shape. He has massive talent and he should prove he deserves the call up.

  3. Well done coach. U are giving chances to everybody. Now let them prove themselves. Iam impressed and i now know you dont segregate.

  4. Finally Fwayo Tembo is in the team!!!Herve Renard felt the heat of the soccer fans and had no choice but to draft him into the team!

  5. Fwayo is a good striker with a lot of potential but he needs to be more desplined and am thats the reason why he went off form. If only he can be much more desplined, he will become a great player and perform wonders. Change for the better,Fwayo.

  6. They need to use the flanks,full backs to attack too,Chisamba should play in midfield as an attacking midfielder with Mukuka Mulenga
