OPINION: Grant is back in the country as expected

………MIGHT [If FAZ & Agent don’t talk to him about damage control] disappear after the Power Dynamos v Red Arrows match next week! 

Avram Grant’s routine 

He will show up five days before camp starts..

In this case, he watched Zanaco’s 1-1 draw against Green Buffaloes on Friday and congratulated Power Dynamos coach Oswad Mutapa for reaching the last 32 of the CAF Champions League.  

On Monday, he will take charge of the Chipolopolo Boys’ training camp. 

Head to Zanzibar for the FIFA World Cup qualifier against Tanzania on Wednesday. 

Three days later, he will be in Ndola for the Niger match. 

Since Power Dynamos will host Red Arrows in a rescheduled match on Sunday after the Zambia versus Niger, Grant will be spotted at Arthur Davies Stadium. 

If the FAZ hierarchy don’t intervene due the pressure, the Grant will head back to his base in London or Dubai. 

He will miss Power Dynamos and Zesco United’s CAF Champions League and Confederations Cup home ties. 

Damage control 

FAZ and his agent will ask him to stick around. He might be present at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium later this month for the two continental ties. 

Ideally, Grant would have vanished after the Power Dynamos against Red Arrows fixture, and only resurface a few days before the international week. 

In November, Grant will announce his AFCON squad. 

If Zambia don’t come out of the group stage then he will be shown the door. 

FAZ boss will turn to a legend for a coach 

Legend to take over the reigns of national team or the legend will head hunt for a expatriate coach on behalf of the FAZ President Keith Mweemba. 

Details will be a discussion for another day….

  1. we are living in the world of technology, Grant am sure can easily watch our leagues via streaming, the reason why we have been losing a lot lately, is because FAZ’s shambolic preparations, you calling for a veteran coach, look at what our coaches did in the CHAN, under 17 and under 20, very poor to say the list, give grant proper team preparations and i believe we can beat any team that comes our way. Chipolopolo have been more disciplined under grant.
