Zambia received a major boost after Augustine Mulenga and Justin Shonga arrived to join the team preparing for the African Cup Nations qualifiers against Botswana.

Head coach Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredojevic named his squad that will be tasked to fight for a first win against the Zebras in Group H at home before travelling to Francistown for the second qualifier.

Mulenga and Shonga are the first foreign-based players to arrive ahead of the double-header against the southern neighbours.
