Augustine Mulenga returns to AmaZulu

AmaZulu have strengthened their squad with the resigning of well-travelled Zambian striker Augustine Mulenga. 

Mulenga, 34, was one of the players who played a key role when Usuthu finished second in the DStv Premiership under former coach Benni McCarthy during the 2020/21 season. 

When they went into the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) enforced break, AmaZulu were lean on goals having scored 14 times in 16 matches and coach Pablo Franco Martín will be hoping Mulenga can improve their conversion rate. 

“If I think about it, of all the clubs that I have played for, I think I’ve enjoyed my career since the time I came here to AmaZulu. I didn’t even hesitate about rejoining Usuthu because I enjoyed my football this side.

“There are friendly people in this city who are very supportive, the supporters have been amazing and I hope they will continue to support me and the team.
