Zambia’s chances of lifting the CHAN trophy could suffer a blow as star winger Augustine Mulenga could sign for an Egyptian club.
And the ZamFoot Crew can exclusively reveal that the Zambian Player of the Year is being courted by either Al Ahly or Zamalek plus unnamed Egypt side.
Though he could state the team, Chipolopolo Boys assistant coach Aggrey Chiyangi revealed that the 27 year old winger was locked up in a meeting with FAZ General Secretary Ponga Liwewe as they try to find a solution.
“On Augustine, he should be meeting the GS over his availability,” Chiyangi said immediately after the team broke camp for Christmas break.
The former Nkwazi winger was in superb form this year and established himself of the key figures for Zambia.
Should he leave for Egypt next week, then it’s unlikely that he will be in Morocco.
While Godfrey Ngwenya, has been operating on the left wing, he is not an out and out winger.
It will leave Wedson Nyirenda with only Ernest Mbewe and Mike Katiba as the only other recognised wingers plus teenage winger Lameck Banda who had an indifferent Cosafa tournament.
With Zesco United’s John Ching’andu ruled out of the tournament, the team lacks in attacking areas especially in wide areas and central midfield.
There has been suggestions that Wada Wada can have a look at former Napsa Stars duo Chitoshi Mukuma and Youremember Banda who have since joined Zanaco and Green Buffaloes respectively.
