William Njobvu ruled out of Africa Cup

William Njobvu says he will miss the Africa Cup due to injury.

Njobvu said in an interview from Israel today that he sustained the injury in league action for Hopoel Ironi Shmona.

“Yes I am injured.I broke my Minuscule in my knee,”Njobvu said.

“I am going for surgery on Monday. But for sure am out of the Africa Cup because the Doctor confirmed that I will be out for four weeks.”

  2. ba njovu, sorry but when are going to be at your peak? i remember you marshalling our midfield in the africa cup finals in egypt were we were unceremoniously booted out in the first rounds. how is your sister? i mean kalu’s girl. some of you players just make numbers and deter young and promising talets who are sidelined cos of your connections within faz. enjoy your injury in israel cos we are better of without you. our midfield will tick with or without you.

  3. Who cares that u are injured? We should ban zambia from participating in soccer , waste of tax payers money. We need to try volley ball or prostitution
