Lusaka Dynamos can now rest at easy, as we can finally say they are no longer a hoi polloi side. In fact, either the league or cup title of this era, is the only missing jigsaw.
They are washed with cash–which boosted their team roster to be unrecognizable from the side that failed to escape relegation last season.
Naysayers can whine all they want, that Lusaka Dynamos, cashed their way back to the top flight football, having gone down division one last season. But this is a completely different side, A Cream dera Cream, a befitting “Elite” Zambian Super league outfit.
The fact that, a top and pure joy to watch player as Fwayo Tembo can ditch both Power Dynamos and an unnamed Swedish club for a move to LD, as they are commonly referred to by this Social media era of fans, just tells you how not of a joke this team is. But this is a completely different side, A Cream dera Cream, a befitting “Elite” Zambian Super league outfit.
A rumored $15,000 signing fee with lucrative tabled monthly wages for Fwayo to Lusaka Dynamos on a 3-year deal has been reportedly and that he rejected an offer from Sweden of €8,000.
You should bear in mind that, It is said that, It was this club that reimbursed a $25,000 signing fee of Cletus Chama to Al Ittihad of Alexandria, hence securing his services.
Ugandan international defender, Joseph Ochaya is one of the foreign top players to have been lured by this powerhouse in making, from Kampala City Council Authority.
A releasing clause of $1, 000 was termed for their striker, Chris Mugalu, who was reportedly in the mainstream media to have been courted by Zesco United.
It will be very interesting to see how Coach Patrick Phiri will line up with Cletus Chama, Aubrey Funga, Fwayo Tembo and Chris Mugalu in his team.
Lusaka Dynamos last won a title in 2008, the BP Top 8 Cup with players like Sydney Kalume, Donwell Yobe, Mwelwa Sakala, Hichani Himonde and William Njovu.
They are currently occupying the second position on the 2017 MTN Super league log after playing 15 games–with 2 games in hand and behind log leaders Napsa Stars who have 34 points.
Not only Lusaka Dynamos are candidates for one of the berths in the 2017 Baclays Cup, they are also league title favourites, albeit it’s still in the morning for such talks. How times changes, what a fairytale story it would be, should the league title heads to National Heroes Stadium, not to Zanaco, but you know who I am talking about here.
With all the pointers to four Zambian envoys in CAF Championships next years; can Zamalek, TP Mazembe, Mumelodi Sundowns and Wydad Athletic Club prepare the encountering with Lusaka Dynamos already?
It is happening at LD, anyway I is for Nkana(Rhokana fc) for life
New money……no class. …back to division 1 next
