Zambia send home Mulenga from African Cup

Published on: 31 January 2012

Zambia says midfielder Clifford Mulenga has been sent home from the African Cup of Nations but declined to give a reason.

Team spokesman Robinson Kunda confirmed the player left the squad on Tuesday ahead of the quarterfinal against Sudan.

Assistant coach Patrice Beaumelle refused to make any further comment, saying “the most important thing is that the team prepares for the quarterfinal” on Saturday in Bata.

Mulenga made one brief appearance as a substitute in Zambia’s 1-0 win against co-host Equatorial Guinea on Sunday.
