is primed for a couple of FAZ awards on Thursday night when the 2015 FAZ/MTN awards are handed out in Lusaka.

The Zesco United striker has already bagged the 2015 Golden Boot follwing his 18 goals that helped the Ndola club retain the FAZ Super Division title and earned them their fifth league crown.

Kalengo is also favourite for the player of the year award in what has been an unforgettable season for the 30-year-old striker.

The striker scored six goals for Zambia; three in the CHAN qualifiers, two in the 2018 World Cup qualifiers and one in the 2017 Africa Cup qualifiers.

He is vying for the top award with his club mate and midfielder Cletous Chama and Zanaco striker Moses Phiri.

Kalengo is also in the race for the most disciplined player award alongside his Zesco goalkeeper Jacob Banda and Red Arrows striker Festus Mbewe.

Lusaka Dynamos striker Conlyde Luchanga will vie for the young player award with his fellow Chipolopolo prospects Napsa Stars defender Boyd Mkandawire and Red Arrows right-back Benedict Chepeshi.

Zesco coach Lwandamina has been nominated for the coach of the year award together with Green Buffaloes’ Bilton Musonda and Nkwazi’s Elijah Chikwanda.
