The 2015 Zambia Player of the year award has gone to Zesco United striker Winston Kalengo.

He beat Zanaco striker Moses Phiri and his Zesco clubmate and midfielder Cletus Chama to Zambia’s coveted footballer honour.

Kalengo also took home two other awards at the 2015 awards gala held in Lusaka on Thursday night .

As expected, Kalengo took home the 2015 Golden Boot after scoring 18 goals that helped Zesco retain their league title for a second straight season.

Kalengo also took home the most disciplined player award.

For that award, he beat Zesco and goalkeeper Jacob Banda and striker Festus Mbewe of Red Arrows.

In the other awards categories on the night, Lusaka Dynamos teenage striker Conlyde Luchanga took home the young player of the year award in his debut season in the FAZ Super Division.

Zesco coach George Lwandamina won the coach of the year award while referee Jan Sikazwe is the referee of the year.

  1. The headline is very catchy. It made me read the whole article because I thought kalengo scored again. You got me and we’ll done with the title. Now you have to work on editing.

    • Its because you didnt pay attention to the headline. It said hat-trick sweep, not goals. In sports reporting, you score goals and you sweep awards. Congratulations to Kalengo and Chicken Geaorge and the others

  2. Kalengo you are my chosen one. My kudos for the three awarded you have earned yourself. Please maintain the same discipline and humbleness; God will reward you. Zambians are proud of you.
