TNM Super League giants, Silver Strikers, have welcomed Mzuzu United top striker, Collen Nkhulambe, for a one-week trial.<\/p>\n
The striker started his trials with the Bankers on Monday and reportedly impressed the Young Chimodzi-led coaching panel.<\/p>\n
Silver assistant coach, Lovemore Fazili, confirmed on Monday that the 25-year old forward is a gem, who needs polishing.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe trained with us and he is a good player,\u201d Fazili said.<\/p>\n
Nkhulambe is the third leading striker in the Northern Region Football Association (NFRA) Simama Premier Division with 12 goals, six goals behind top scorer, Abel Mwakilama, of Chitipa United.<\/p>\n
The Bankers face tough competition to keep top forward Matthews Sibale and Thuso Paipi, who have attracted domestic and international clubs.<\/p>\n
Reports are also rife that Bullets are interested in signing Silver captain Lucky Malata.<\/p>\n
However, Fazili has said the players were not for sale at any price.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are not disturbed by the reports. Let people talk about our players but they belong to us,\u201d Fazili insisted.<\/p>\n
Nkhulambe will compete for places in the Silver starting line-up against Sibale, Chimwemwe Chisambi, Tizgobere Kumwenda and Clement Trota.<\/p>\n
Silver have also received a huge boost following the return of experienced midfielder, Young Chimodzi Jnr.<\/p>\n
Silver finished the first round of the TNM Super League with 29 points on position two, three points behind leaders, Blue Eagles.<\/p>\n
The Bankers have also booked a semifinal tie against Mafco in the Carlsberg Cup.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
