Azam Tigers have made their first signing of the summer after landing defender Boston Kabango from Be Forward Wanderers on a free transfer.<\/p>\n
Kabango, who left the Kau- Kau years ago to join the Nomads, on Monday confirmed that he had re-joined Tigers.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am back where l started my Super League career. It feels good to be back home and I am ready to assist Tigers in its ambition of clinching cups,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Tigers Technical Director, Robin Alufandika, said he was delighted to have Kabango back.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are very pleased that Kabango has agreed to rejoin us. He is a player of real quality, with a fantastic work rate and great mentality. Boston is a strong defender. He is a very good addition to our squad,\u201d Alufandika said.<\/p>\n
Kabango, who has been training with Tigers during pre-season, could be a direct replacement for reliable defender Peter Cholopi who signed for Wanderers.<\/p>\n
Cholopi joined Wanderers alongside midfielder Dan Kumwenda.<\/p>\n
Commenting on Tigers\u2019 preparations, Alufandika said despite the departure of key players, they would build a strong squad.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are more than ready for the 2018 season. How l wish they could give us Nyasa Big Bullets or Be Forward Wanderers in our first game to show the nation that we are still the Kau-Kau boys,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Tigers are yet to hire a replacement for Coach Patrick Kulemeka with Chikaiko Bridge and former player, Mapopa Msukwa, serving as stand-in coaches for the club.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
