Injury has knocked out Patson Daka’s availability for next week’s four-nation tournament Zambia will host at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola.

The striker from Austrian champions RB Salzburg was one of eight overseas players Chipolopolo coach Wedson Nyirenda had summoned for the friendly tournament to be held from March 21-24.

Nyirenda has since replaced Daka with Nkana striker Ronald Kampamba.

Meanwhile, the home-based Zambia players ended their preliminary three-day training camp in Lusaka on Wednesday and will regroup in Ndola this Sunday after taking care of their respective league engagements.

Zambia will face Zimbabwe in their semifinal doubleheader on March 21 at 13h00 while South Africa take on Angola at 15h00.

The winners will meet in the final on March 24 at 15h00 that will be preceded by the third-and-fourth playoff at 13h00.
