Chipolopolo midfielder Klings Kangwa has been inducted into the Hapoel Be’er Sheva Hall of Fame following two successful seasons with the club.
Kangwa took to social media to confirm the development. The Zambian international says the gesture means more to him than words can express.
“Some moments in football stay with you forever…Truly honoured to be inducted into the Hapoel Be’er Sheva Hall of Fame. This recognition means more to me than words can express.
Forever grateful ❤️🤍🏆🙏.”
Kangwa recently completed a move to Greek giants Panathinaikos FC. The Happy Hearts product will play his final match for Hapoel Be’er Sheva on Wednesday in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League second qualifier against Icelandic side Vikingur Reykjavik.
Kangwa is expected to sign a four-year contract with Panathinaikos, keeping him at the Athens-based club until June 2030. The deal is reportedly worth around €1 million per season.
Panathinaikos agreed a transfer package worth €4.5 million, consisting of a fixed fee of €3.8 million and a further €700,000 in performance-related bonuses.
The 27-year-old will arrive in Greece after an outstanding campaign in Israel, where he was named the Israeli Premier League Player of the Season.
Kangwa registered 21 league goal contributions, scoring 12 goals and providing nine assists in one of the finest seasons of his career.
He won the Israeli State Cup in the 2024/2025 season and was named as the best foreign player in the league.
