Despite recent issues involving Rainford Kalaba, Stoppila Sunzu, and Nathan Sinkala, TP Mazembe remains committed to recruiting Zambian players, as evidenced by the official announcement of Kabaso Chongo’s arrival. Chongo, a 21-year-old defender, previously played for Konkala Mines Police FC in Zambia.
Recognized as a promising talent, Kabaso Chongo’s qualities have captured the attention of TP Mazembe, and he is set to sign a five-year contract with the club owned by Moïse Katumbi. The announcement of his arrival brings satisfaction to the club and its coach, Patrice Carteron, who expressed their eagerness to build one of the continent’s strongest teams capable of competing in the next CAF Champions League.
Carteron stated, “The arrival of Kabaso is a real satisfaction for us. It marks our desire to project ourselves into the future to build one of the greatest African teams capable of reaching the next CAF Champions League.”
Kabaso Chongo, already a senior player in the Zambian national team, recently participated in a friendly match against Brazil, where Zambia faced a loss just over two weeks ago.
