The Chipolopolo boys have arrived in Port Elizabeth ahead of the 2021 Cosafa Cup to be held from July 6-18.

Veteran goalkeeper Kennedy Mweene linked up with the team in South Africa completing the list of players summoned for Cosafa duty.

Zambia is in Group A alongside hosts South Africa, Eswatini, Botswana, and Lesotho.

The Chipolopolo is accommodated at Radisson Blu Hotel and will open their campaign on Thursday against Lesotho at Wolfson Stadium.

Coach Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredojevic has assembled a blend of youth and experience as he leads the Chipolopolo into the defense of the title, they won in 2019.

Zambia has lifted the Cosafa Cup five times, one less than record-holders Zimbabwe.
