Zambia striker Fwayo Tembo says he is desperate to finally play in an Afcon or Chan tournament.
Strangely, the 27-year-old Power Dynamos player, who enjoyed seven-year stint overseas, that took him to Tunisia, Switzerland and Romania, has only graced the Caf U20 Cup and Fifa U20 World Cup in 2007.
Fwayo said he is eager to firstly help Zambia qualify, to next year’s Chan tournament in Kenya.
“I have never won anything at the national team, now the Chan is near so I hope I can win something with the national team,” Fwayo said.
“It is not going to be an easy year with the Chan, Africa Cup and World Cup qualifiers but we will do our best.”
Fwayo is one of the 27 players called-up by Zambia coach Wedson Nyirenda for the preliminary phase of the 2018 Chan qualifiers preparations that began this week with a three-day camp in Lusaka.
Swaziland will host Zambia in the Chan first leg qualifiers during the weekend of July 16 while the return leg will be played on July 22.
The winner will advance to the final qualifying stage in August to play either South Africa or Botswana for a place in next January’s finals in Nairobi.
