Coach Wedson Nyirenda has named his first squad as interim Zambia manager ahead Sunday’s 2018 Fifa World Cup qualifier against Nigeria.

The former Ferroviario de Beira handler included Kennedy Mweene, Nathan Sinkala and Jackson Mwanza in the team – with FC Ural's Chisamba Lungu and Lille's Stoppila Sunzu the only two European based pros.

However, there was no room for Racha Kola, Donashano Malama, Billy Mutale, Spencer Sautu, Patson Daka and Justin Shonga in the 23-man squad.
