Nkana beat Power to land Sitali

Super League champions Nkana have shrugged off competition from their Kitwe arch-rivals Power Dynamos to sign skilful midfielder Joseph Sitali.

Sitali, a well known Nkana fan, expressed interest in rejoining Power this month after leaving Lubumbashi club Don Bosco half way into his three-year contract with the Congolese side.

Nkana secretary Ken Mwansa confirmed on Friday that Sitali is now a Kalampa.

Details of the deal are scanty.

“Yes I can confirm that he has joined us, we managed to beat the deadline, we are now just waiting for his ITC,” Mwansa said.

“He expressed interest to come to the club even last year. Now he is our player after successful negotiations with our colleagues.”
