Southampton coach Ronald Koeman has decided to release Emmanuel Mayuka early this week for 2015 Africa Cup duty.

The Dutchman said he had enough cover in Mayuka’s position thus he would be the first of his three players who will be away on continental duty next month to be released.

Senegal midfielder Sadio Mane will be released after January 4 for Africa Cup duty while Japan defender Maya Yoshida will travel will travel to Australia for the 2015 Asia Cup on January 1.

“We will have three players who will play for the national teams. Mayuka will go now this weekend because we have more players available in that position,” Koeman stated on Southampton’s official website.

“I spoke to the national coach of Japan and Maya will stay until after the game against Arsenal .

And Zambia will regroup on December 26 in Johannesburg for the final phase of pre-2015 Africa Cup training camp and are expected back home after January 11 for their farewell reception.

    i thank you

  2. It seems Mayuka is not in Ronald Koeman’s plans. I see him being loaned this January or even being released by So’ton. Mayuka should take advantage of the AFCON this coming January and perform well for Zambia. He might just attract some good clubs and sign him.

    • Bottom line is, Mayuka can’t just play soccer at the moment. I’ve watched him come on as a substitute at Southampton and each time it’s like he’s running away from the ball. He should have more aggressiveness on the ball in order make it. I feel pity for the young lad at times.

  3. Fellow country men and women i greet you in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord on this great day.
    The reason i speak to you today is simple—my family and i would like to wish you nothing but love, peace, joy and unity this Christmas, and of course a happy new year.
    I pray to God that you celebrate this Christmas peacefully with your beloved family members and friends. Do not over indulge.
    During this period, please focus on that which you unites our country and not that which divides us.
    To our party members, and sympathizers, i thank you all for the tremendous support you have given us thus far as we step up the campaign for the 2015 presidential elections.
    Let’s us continue to campaign in the same spirit and zeal of oneness

  4. How come the coach for South ampton is an AFRICAN in the name of RONALD KAMPAMBA, is he a zambian? enlighten me blogers. Its not good news to us it seems MAYUKA is out of favour, well your man work hard in THE tONGA MANS TEAM HJ. redeem yourself and shame the roanld kampamba coach

  5. Mayuka posako amano we need zambians to shine in big leagues

    GO CHIPOLOPOLO GOoooooooooo

    And imwe ba kolwe posting politics here shameless caders give it a rest

  6. …..Mayuka’s agents need to wake up and find a suitable league and club for the young man before he is wasted on S’ton bench…..as if he is a goalkeeper..

  7. Why camping in SA instead of country with same temperature like the host? Are you there to enrich SA by using their grounds and hotels for nothing?

  8. How can Mayuka perform well at the AFCON when he is always warming the bench at S’ton? It is just by name that he is in the PREMERESHIP.

  9. Mayuka is a good forward but not as good as Pelle or 2 other forwards. So you can’t expect him starting games that Southampton needs to win to challenge top 4 finish to be given first choice. In the premier league one must have some kinda intelligence and has to be alert all the times and know exactly what to do with the ball once he has it. Its for that reason why most Zambian players will never even play 10 minutes Mayuka has been playing for Southampton. With all that said, Mayuka will offloaded in this January transfer window and the Scotland wouldn’t be bad for him
