This young man is going places, congrats young charly.
Boy you have a great fiture ahead of you. You better choose Belgium over Zambia because in Zambia you will just waste your career benefiting the useless FAZ. You won’t represent Zambia but FAZ officials and later you are going to be a loser.
Kalu’s Cadres will get angry at you for speaking out the truth.

no one has stoped these boys playing 4 zambia. So let them choose wat is gud 4 dem, bt remember home is laka is ask dede nd jordan.
The pre-historic backward retarded constitution of Zambia stops these lads from playing for Zambia. You cant say no one when the law of the land which is so cave-man backward is stopping these lads. We will continue to loose talent like this because of a retarded constitution. I bet should proper research be done you will find a dozen other talented Zambian players like this but unfortunately they cant play because our constitution is so pre-historic.
Why associate with the kid and showering him praises but he doesnt associate himself with Zambia? Just concentrate on the riff raffs players you got at home.
Lol.
Cape Verde have benefitted immensely from having dual citizenship in their constitution and now have all of a sudden become quite a force in African football from being minnows.
I bet if proper research is done we will find that there are many other talented players like Charlies kids but unfortunately because of our baseless, retarded cave-man constitution they will probably never play for Zambia. We will continue to stick it out with first round Afcon exists because of this nonsensical law in our land.
Bro Big Steve 4rm SA Its very painful when you think about our backward constitution
I have been following this young boy’s career from the time he was at andrelect he has been doing amazing things form a young age.he has been compared to some of the best players in the world e.g Xavi,iniesta,hazard and pogba considered by most as a combination of all the above.he has already captained Belgium at age group level,won BPL u21,FA youth cup and now UEFA u19 championship all at the age of 18,truly a special talent an experienced head on young shoulders and very humble and eager to learn,he has all the attributes to become one of the best players in the world in the next 3-5 years.

This so talented lad plays in the midfield the same position currently held by fellow Belgiuanand Chelsea senior teammate who is if am right about 20 years old,Hazard,so am thinking to myself can he,Musonda,take that position from him both at Natoinal and club level,I do not think that will happen any time soon if not a big ask to the chap any way congrates and wish you well in your career and I know the father won’t allow the chap to represent Zambia as he refused the other senior boys to in any case they never even made the Belgium squad but this kid is different as he has done so at junior level,Belgium under 20.
Yeah I can see you are now running out of options, just improve on what we have. This kid has never known Zambia not even where Matero is, its sheer waste of time to even discuss him.
Why are we talking about this young man when we Know he will never play for Zambia. Why should be even make Zambian news? We should focus on improving training standards for young players and masking the league more competitive.
They are Belgium Citizens and following the decisions their parents made of remaining there, it would be folly to think they would ever choose to be Zambians. Do they even know Mufulira, have they been here?
Yes y even talking about them? They belong to Belgium.
yes they belong to Belgium,even if they had intentions of playing for Zambia,with this ugly management of soccer in zambia,do you think they would want to be part of it ?
I can assure you no matter how good the kid and his brothers are they will never make the Belgium National team,period.
i agree with you
These boys speak bemba and have been to visit Zambia a lot of times Charly jr was here in 2012
why crying for people who not Zambians . Better to be proud Zambian in good and bad times or win lose draw that’s the nature of the game.
This is mind boggling. Are the parents from ZAMBIA or Belgium? If the parents are ZAMBIAN & he was born in Belgium, what prevents the young man for choosing to play for Zambia? Please someone educate me.
what prevents the young man from playing for zambia is the zambian football itself. It is useless and this young man would not want to waste time in this useless football of ours.
rather on
Haters will always hate. These kids will not play for King Kalu because King corrupt Kalu only wants his name to be associated with Zambian football. King Kalu is also jealous that he never had a male child to pick up where he left from playing. all what king kalu has is girl babies and can’t even kick a ball.
You sometimes come up with very good argument on the blog but in this particular case you have hit a really shallow blow with this comment. I hope you can be man enough to withdraw it.

i agree wth sam1 here, why talk about him is he a zambian. Most pipo do not even kno dat kulu nd charles were best friend until april 93. Kalu has been around in good/ bad tyms 4 us. So zamfoot any news on nathan, ngosa sunzu, alex mwamba & o zambians players
This is part of the mediocrity we as Zambians have come to embrace and embrace so emphatically it has reached a level of disgusting.
Like it or not Charles Musonda’s sons are Zambian. You can sit on a mountain top and sing out loud that they are not Zambian because of their citizenship but we all know they are Zambian like it or not.
There are two reasons why these boys will not play for Zambian
1. Our pathetic, pre-historic, nonsensical, caveman, extreme backward constitution.
2. Comments like the ones a lot of you have posted on the thread busy down talking people who have achieved something worth talking about.
Why would he consider playing for a country where people of his own blood can post comments like “he will never play for Belgium” Even I wouldn’t.
Instead of looking at the bigger picture we embrace the shallow thinking of accepting a pathetic constitution and instead of supporting our very own sons we down talk them. Sometimes I think us Zambians deserve the poverty and pathetic country we are from. Our mind-set puts us there.
A good and determined player wouldn’t want to involve himself with our shameful administration of football. Even if he does not feature for the Belgium team,its better for him to just play club football than geting himself in the matope(matika) we call zambian football
Bro.Big Steve 4rm SA I fully agree with you
THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WE EMBRACE. TALK TALK TALK BUT NOTHING IT. HATE HATE BUT TO NO AVAIL. DISLIKE PIPO BE KALU WHAT. KALU HES JUST MAN NOT GOVMT NO.
We will never have this boy. The Musondas are not to blame. But blame the current Zambian constitution which does not allow dual citizenship. There is no way this boy can denounce Belgian citizenship for Zambia. If there was dual citizenship, he would consider playing for Zambia whilst keeping his Belgian citizenship.
That boy has never stayed in Zambia and knows nothing about African cultures! It is just his skin which is black otherwise he is European. Forget about him, he doesn’t even want to be associated with Africa! He is European! His dad and mum have also taken up Belgian citizenship and you think they can let their child to play for Zambia! Far from it!
Big Steve valid points
this is evidence that talent we have but maladminstration is our biggest undoing
Immature evangelist, how do others get noticed in the same administration
I know why Zambian football is failing…….FAZ HAS FAILED TO RUN FOOTBALL
young man just do what your heart desires…..and lets not blame kalu
