Zambia is set to take Kenya at Nyayo Stadium on Friday and in naming his team for the clash, the Serbian dropped Simba SC midfielder Clatous Chama and Azam FC striker Aubrey Chirwa after they failed to pitch for camp on time.
The tactician further confirmed that Red Bull Salzburg pair of Patson Daka and Enock Mwepu would not be available for the match since they were not allowed to travel by their clubs owing to the club barring all their players from featuring for their national teams during the international window after recording three Covid-19 cases.
