Nkana have received a massive blow following injuries to forward Walter Bwalya and talismanic midfielder Fred Tshimenga, ahead of Sunday’s Caf Confederation Cup quarter-final, second leg against Club Sportif Sfaxien away.
Bwalya was doubtful for the first leg in Kitwe last weekend but managed to start the match before limping off in the 62nd minute with an injured knee.
Also, Tshimenga scored in the 2-1 win but went off on 71 minutes complaining of his foot, after aggrevating an existing injury during training on Tuesday.
Striker Festus came on for Tshimenga but has been surprisingly dropped under unclear circumstances from the squad that travelled to Sfax.
