The Chipolopolo Boys will be without three players for this month’s International friendly matches.
England based striker Patson Daka , Danish based winger Edward ‘Tiger’ Chilufya and South Africa based Augustine Mulenga will all miss the two friendly matches.
The Leicester City forward will be unavailable due to a family commitment whereas Chulifya is ill.
Meanwhile, Mulenga is out injured after limping off in Amazulu’s CAF Champions League match on Friday that his side lost 2-0.
Chipolopolo boss, Aljosa Asanovic has named 23 players for this week’s trip to Turkey that will feature in two international friendly matches starting with Congo Brazzaville on Friday March 25.
The match against Congo and another yet to be confirmed opponent is part of Chipolopolo’s preparations for the African Nations Champions (CHAN) Qualifiers and the Africa Cup of Nations Qualifiers to be held in June.
