Kangwa was recently voted as the Arsenal Tula player of the month of August an accolade that he is very happy to have won.
On an individual level, Klings Kangwa is targeting being involved in almost all the goals that Tula will score this season.

So far I have been involved in all the goals that we have scored, I scored 1, assisted two, and was involved in the build-up to the league their goals. That’s what I want to work on and score or assist as many goals as I can,” he said.
