Omnelyne Zambia and Mama Africa have come in with a logistical support package worth US$45,000 and US$35,000 respectively.

Nkana club president Everisto Kabila said the club is excited to have secured the season-long deal.

“To all our sponsors, we are saying thank you so much for partnering with us and I can assure you that you will get value for your investments in Nkana Football Club ,” Kabila said.

He added that Nkana will also continue enjoying its long-term relationship with its traditional sponsor Mopani Copper Mines.

Kabila said that with the new deal, Nkana is optimistic of mounting a strong challenge for the 2017 league title after finishing third last season.

At the same ceremony Nkana unveiled new signings defender Aaron Katebe, midfielder Samson Chilupe, winger Innocent Mwaba, middfielder Yannick Kalenga and keeper Moses Mapulanga.

    • Moses Mapulanga is a good goalkeeper. I remember when he was at Nakambala, the young boy was flexible. He has all what Chipolopolo needs.

  1. Footballers in Europe get this in a week..still a lot of work to do in Zambian football, the selfish Galus never did anything!!

    • That is totally terrible comparison, its same as telling Zambians that @ JayJay pays $1500 for a 1 bedroom apartment or that pays $4 for a Tequila shot or $3 for glass of draught beer. I just had that after my work.

    • Well football is the number one sport in a country if 15 million people…better deals need to negotiated not these pantry sums.

  2. All the best to kalampa this season. With the new signing of players like mapulamga and the likes ,its go nkana go…..kalampa for life

  3. a clear in barclays bank at any branch in europe is not paid the same as the one in cairo road barclays branch or the one in harare.
