Austria-based midfielder, Enock “Computer” Mwepu, has joined the Zambia national team camp in Accra, Ghana ahead of Saturday’s crucial Russia 2018 FIFA World Cup Group B match against Nigeria.
Team Manager Chris Chibuye confirmed from the team base in Accra that Sweden-based Edward Chilufya will not be part of the team as his work permit matters were yet to be finalized after signing a contract on turning 18 years.
Mwepu, who stars for FC Liefering in Austria, closes up the number of foreign-based players with the exception of Patson Daka, who will join the squad in Abuja on Wednesday.
Reports further say that all but two of the nine foreign-based players summoned to camp have joined giving Wedson Nyirenda enough time to work with his arsenals.
