Captain of the Zambian national team, Kennedy Mweene, has said that camping in Europe, will enable them concentrate fully on next month’s 2018 World Cup qualifier against Nigeria on October 7 in Uyo.

Mweene vowed that the Chipolopolo will enter the pitch and show the group B leaders, they meant business in their quest to earn a ticket to their first ever World Cup.

A win for the Super Eagles will end all hopes for the Zambians, while a win for the Chipolopolo will stretch the battle for the ticket to the last games.

Nigeria will be away to Algeria and Zambia home to Cameroon.

“We need this camp because we want to enter the pitch in Nigeria with unity and we need to show that we mean business

“It is a very good idea. They did it with the U-20 and so for us to camp that side, especially the national team, we will be away from the pressures of the media and other things for us to focus.

“It will also help us further bond more as a team away from home especially with the new guys and the Under-20 players,” Mweene sai
