The Football Association of Zambia says they have secured a friendly for Zambia against Cote d’Ivoire.

FAZ spokesperson Nkweto Tembwe said at a briefing that the friendly will be part of Zambia’s 50th jubilee celebrations.

“On the 25th of October, Chipolopolo will play Cote d’Ivoire at the National Heroes Stadium in Lusaka,” Nkweto said.

Nkweto said FAZ is also courting Namibia, Botswana and Kenya for prospective friendly on October 24.

“These friendlies are purely to give the technical bench a chance to gauge the players and also to give our players take their talent so that hey could be noticed,” Nkweto said.

    • Please, don’t bring ebola to Zambia. how can you invite a team from a country where theres ebola, Liberia. protect our people by taking simple precautions by avoiding unnecessary invitations. wake up

  1. Kalusha commenting on new assistant coach:
    “It was important for us to find someone who knows the terrain and someone who can help the coach Honour Janza,”
    “Maybe Labohm will stay. We hope he will like it and enjoy working here”
    “Labohm will bring a lot of knowledge and this is what we need. He has been around for many years, he has worked in Netherlands, Hong Kong, Surinam, Ukraine, Tunisia and Zambia. “We have four more qualifiers to play and Labohm will stay with the team until the end of the qualifiers. We expect he will receive a lot of support from all Zambians, and from the players especially, so he can bring his expertise on the pitch and off it, so we can get the desired results.”
    The above comments dont sound like the guy is an assistant coach. Its like he will be…

    • You are very right. Zambia has just hired a Dutch team manager. Chansa will be learning from the guy.

  2. BTW Ghana are courting Kluivert…in Germany 2 pretty good coaches are “free” – Slomka and Keller but my bet still remains Keshi would have brought back the Buselic-euphoria days 🙂

  3. It is indeed high time Mother Zambia and it’s people got rid off the inferior muzungu likes me mentality. Yard n broad…Home n abroad, please get rid. From the politics them, that is where it should start from. Bloodclat people claim to be royals for who?

  4. Holland? Where was Kalusha playing his soccer? Did they go through the right channel? Was this guy hand picked? Did they advertised for the job? Holland, Holland, may he is a friend, anyway we wish him the best of blessings.

  5. Hope they are considering rescheduling the premier league games that will fall on the same day. Same day power is taking on Nkana whilst there s also Zesco – Zanaco game.

  6. As part of 50th jubilee celebrations, Zed plays Ivory Coast. Can someone explain the signifiance of IC in our political celebrations. My pick as part our of jubilee celebration would be England. I will leave the rest (Zed – Eng) to your imagination…
