Zambia U17 team midfielder Ngosa Sunzu has been offered a scholarship at Berkshire High school in Sheffield Massachuttes in USA.
Sunzu a young brother to renown international defender Stopilla Sunzu was part of the Zambia U17 national team that played at the CAF U17 Junior Championship and started all the three games Zambia played in the group stage.
Zambia’s Ambassador to South Africa Emmanuel Mwamba wrote –
Berkshire High are interested in giving him a full scholarship and an opportunity to play soccer in US.
Sunzu was recently in Sweden with the Lusaka Sports Youth Academy were they participated in the Gothia Cup together with Chiparamba Breakthrough Soccer Academy who finished third.
Lubambo musonda is back in Armenia but at another club. He even scored in a preseason friendly. Sunzu is rumoured to be on his way to lille on a season long loan.
Thanks John this is good news. I hope Kalaba also is on his way to France.
Good news. Thanks John bro for the info. I hope he stays at Lille after the loan especially when he impresses Lille. They might sign him on a permanent move.
Thanks john
gud 4 for young sunzu, let him go nd start fro there.
Great news for Zambian football..
Y’all realize this is a high school, not an Academy or club or college
My thoughts exactly, High school….like really!!!!! the guy is 17 should he not already be done or almost done with high school?
Umm !! -IT SEEMS GHANA ACADEMY WON THE ( GOTHIA )
CUP FOR THE SECOND TIME THIS YEAR-2014-2015..ANYWAY, YOUNG SUNZU HAVE TO TAKE THIS CHANCE TO UPGRADE HIS FOOTBALLING IN THE STATES..
GOOD LUCK YOUNG SUNZU..
I personally believe Renard should consider signing Mayuka to bolster his strike force at lille. Mayuka is going to perform much better at lille than he did at relegation threatened Sochaux. Lille is a much stronger creative force and Mayuka will have more chance to go and shoot at goal just like he did at young boys. Mayuka must leave the saints ASAP as zambia currently has no striker.
mayuka failed in France under renard. what makes u think renard will consider him again
I don’t think HR would go down that road again after Mayuka failed under him in the same league. HR is even chasing Jordan Ayew’s signature again. Mayuka had a big opportunity but he blew it and it is now haunting the rest of his career. HR needs to hit the road running at Lille as such he needs players that will arrive and immediately start performing. With Mayuka he will have to start to rebuild him into a performing player again.
Love or hate him, HR will remain an important factor in Zamfoot for a long time and his name will be written in gold letters in our soccer history. Since Antebuselic, who took a team of little known players to the 1974 Afcon finals against Mighty Zaire, we’ve never had a national coach who has captivated our minds as much as him. He got us our first AFCON cup and within weeks of joining the French league had already given 2 Zm players a chance to show case what they were capable of in Europe. After CIV his commitment to Zm hasn’t waned…here is he giving a chance to our boys…Merci Monsieur Renard…to our Boys: take this chance, don’t waste it
what is the source of information on stopila sunzu going to france mr john give us atleast the website
@Mukamba,thats what I want to know too..this john guy claims to have some fake sources and have fake stories….I searched the net and asked the china football account on twitter,they dnt knw anythn abt it.
CHIPOLOPOLO AMONG AFRICA ZONE TOP SEEDS IN FIFA WORLD CUP RUSSIA 2018 DRAW
…..Zambia to join World Cup race in second round…..
.
2012 African champions Zambia are among Africa’s top seeded teams for this weekend’s FIFA World Cup Russia 2018 draw. The placement of Zambia as one of the continent’s top sides will see the Chipolopolo join the race for a place at the biggest sports championship on the planet at the second round phase. The preliminary round draw takes place 25 July in the Russian city of St. Petersburg. With some preliminary round matches having been played in other confederations, a total of 144 countries are in Saturday’s draw.
According to the draw procedure released by CAF in Cairo today, only one of CAF’s 54 members will miss the draw. The Zimbabwe Warriors were expelled from the preliminary competition by the FIFA Disciplinary Committee.
Africa’s top ranked sides who will join qualifying in the second round are: Algeria, Cote d’Ivoire, Ghana, Tunisia, Senegal, Cameroon, Congo, Cape Verde, Egypt, Nigeria, Guinea, Congo, Mali, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, South Africa, Zambia, Burkina Faso, Uganda, Rwanda, Togo , Morocco, Sudan, Angola, Mozambique, Benin and Libya.
The rest of the African sides will contest the first round for a chance to join the 27.
The winners of the Second Round will move into the Third Round, where five groups of four teams will meet both home and away. The winner of each group will qualify for Russia 2018.
Zambia is seeking a maiden FIFA World Cup place and FAZ has recently announced that its target was to return to the Olympic Games in 2016 and be at Russia 2018. A new coach expected to work with George Lwandamina and Fighton Simukonda is expected to lead Zambia’s World Cup campaign. – Zambian Football KICKOFF
It almost feels like the powers that be are not serious about hiring the new coach. With all these developments around world cup qualification you would expect the FA and government to speed up the process but it just seems like they are taking their precious time and then will hire a coach one week before the qualifiers and expect miracles. The minister of sport should hang his head very low after making the bold announcement about a coach being hired and now this. leadership in the FA is seriously lacking, leadership in the sports ministry and is also showing signs of the same…..it feels like dooms day for us in the football family.
Does he know English? Because these chaps can have aspirations like his brother Sunzu but fails to settle-in places where Bemba or Nyanja is not spoken.
our players now have just to depend on HR for them to be signed up in Europe not on fair ground so it tells how our lads are not even considered,sad so sad.Some are going to High Schools when they need to break in prestigous Football Academies,some are globe trotting for trials but never get signed and end up at small teams if not in the Asian leagues.
@ merrick the story is all over L’Equipe France football magazine. My info is always on point. Never doubt me.
The same story was on chipololpolo die hards
Fact is zambia is poor if we can proudly say that 2,000 dollars as a salary is breaking the bank then clearly we have no money for a coach. That moron George lwandimina cost us 2 points against guinea bissau with a very useless line up. Surely even Janza is a better coach. We have no money for a coach. If we had money he would have been employed long ago.
Thanks Ba John for the update which is Lubambo Musonda playing for…..
I mean which club is skillful Lubambo playing for in armenia
merrick is new to this site for him to question john’s source of information. john can be an irritant but no one beats him wen it comes to reliable data
We dnt have good players in zambia,always relying on HR or going to small asia or europe leagues…..so sunzu will only join lille becoz of HR not because his good
HR
The talent in Zambia it is in abadance but it is poorly managed.. Those who say there is talent they are lost. You can’t win afcon without talent. Sunzu can do without renard. That man is talented he can play in any league. Guys saints they might hav realised that mayuka is talented that’s why they are keeping him.. Of all the strikers who played at afcon only a few can match mayuka interms of attacking the goal .. One of the zim he said i wonder why this man is not playing at his club.. When mayuka got injured and left the pitch the chipolopolo attack looks very ordinary .. Hate him or love him but no one can take anything from him.
