03.09.2025 | Football DNA ⚽️

The Chipolopolo camp in Ndola continues to take shape as more foreign-based players have joined preparations for the crucial FIFA World Cup qualifier against Morocco.

Israel-based duo Kings Kangwa and Kennedy Musonda were among the latest arrivals, joining Lameck Banda and Fashion Sakala in camp. Skipper Lubambo Musonda has also checked in, although he did not take part in this afternoon’s training session at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium.

Scotland-based midfielder Miguel Chaiwa and Denmark-based forward Edward Chilufya are expected to arrive later tonight. The final piece of the puzzle will be Joseph Liteta, who is on the books of Italian Serie A side Cagliari.

Meanwhile, Austria-based youngster Kingstone Mutandwa has opted out of the Morocco clash, citing “personal reasons.” The rising star recently signed with Austrian Bundesliga outfit SV Ried from Cagliari.

Zambia will host Morocco on Monday at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola in a high-stakes Group E FIFA World Cup qualifier.

Fans are encouraged to secure their tickets early, with prices set as follows:

K30 – Early bird

K50 – North and South stands

K100 – East wing

K150 – West wing

K300 – VIP

With the squad nearly complete, anticipation is building as Chipolopolo aim to make a strong statement against the Atlas Lions.
