Chipolopolo Boys goal poacher Winstone Kalengo is likely to miss next month’s CHAN tournament as he is on the verge of signing a lucrative deal abroad.
The 29 year old who swept all the end of year awards at both Zesco United and MTN/FAZ awards, has been missing from the CHAN squad training sessions at Lusaka’s Independence Stadium.
The Zambianfootball.co.zm understands that the man who got 24 goals for both club and country will sign a long term deal with Orlando Pirates his favoured club.
South African sides Sundowns and Black Aces have begin linked while a move to Sudanese giants Al Merriekh couldn’t materialise after Diego Garzitto was sacked.
A possible move to Europe has been mentioned.
While the Chipolopolo faithful would have loved to see the combination of KalenGoal and 2012 African Cup of Nations winning captain Chris Katongo in Rwanda next month, it is now a case of waiting for March 2016 when the African Cup of Nations resume.
Meanwhile George Lwandamina has called Zanaco goalkeeper Racha Kola as Danny Munyao’s replacement. Munyao together with Red Arrows teammates Festus Mbewe, Benedict Chepeshi and Paul Katema have gone for Military training.
If it’s Orlando Pirates kiss goodbye to your career.
South Africa are finishing Zambian players by benching them,look MWe ene is now a bench warmer from Onyango of Uganda.It’s better to go somewhere else than in south,south Africa will always be beating us if our players continue going to south.
Maybe Zambians are under performing.
Black aces yes but pirates????awe my friend. They will just disturb your career and finish u then dump u.
If this man signs for pirates that will be the end of him considering his advanced age! Our players don’t learn. I don’t think he will even be making the substitutes bench at that club.
He seems to be in a hurry.I hope he’ll only sign the deal after chan as for now he can negotiate his personal terms with the club though not pirates.

no no no sa clubs
kalengo can you hear as
This is so worrying,don’t tell me that Zesco cannot pay. kalegoal about $5000 and above am sure it in those ranges pirates will pay him and bench him and then dump him and they will be very happy so it seems are the mission South African clubs are now aiming for as far as Zambian players are concerned and the players are so fooled by the also now useless Rand .
Waya mu kupwa granpa. kalegoal.
That’s the end of Mr Kalengo….
malaaabishi
People on this blog seem to be so negative about his impending move to Orlando Pirates. What if its the best deal deal among the other offers if any? How do you know that if he moves to Orlando Pirates it will be the end of his career? Kalengo has to take a leap of faith and apply himself to the best of his soccer capabilities while there and besides the man has to earn a living and if it is a good one i don’t see why he should not go for it.LIFE IS ABOUT MAKING DECISIONS.
Black Aces would be a good destination for him because he would be assured of game time. There is stiff competition at Orlando Pirates which would limit him to the bench.
Bs Zesco naimwe step in and protect your own and Increase his wages , whats the point of competing in the Champions league when you’ve sold your best players? So disappointed with you .
@ Don, my thought aswell. We shouldnt be competing in this Champions league coz Kalengo will come and hammer us right here!!!!!
This move is not good because of the following reasons: 1 the timing is wrong because of the chan tournement he should have gone after the chan tournment. 2 orlando pirates is not like the way it used to be in the past I mean giving chance to forgner players 3. When you look at the starting eleven forgners are always on the bench.having said that mpumalanga black Aces was the right club for him
Orlando pirates have the record of finishing players example is mbesuma,isaac chansa, to mention but few,there are players from malawi,zimbabwe,senegal namibia.can managements at zesco united advise him properly please
Last season that player from senega by the name of sarr he was playing very well but this season he is always on the bench
Kalengo has joined Ac leopards of congo Brazzaville on 1 year deal
i would like kalengo go to sudans rather thn in south africa becoz akapwa ngamayuka ushufwika nefyo aleteya
Why the desperation to play outside the country Kalegoal can Zesco please increase the salary of this granpa so that he does not go and finish some where else.i can assure you people if he goes where ever they will finish in just three months especially at pirates they are now promoting their own players and just use foreign players for push theres.
Zambian plays are hopless,poor at making decesions.wait(i mean after CHAN)hoping our country at chan they after going where he can.kalengo u betray the Zambian footballs(fans).
