Malawi Adds Swedish and French-based Midfielders Ahead of Falconets Rematch

Malawi head coach Maggie Chombo has bolstered her U-20 squad ahead of Saturday’s second leg qualifier against Nigeria by calling up foreign-based midfielders Faith Chinzimu and Rose Kabzere. Chinzimu, a 19-year-old midfielder with Swedish club BK Häcken FF, was part of the squad that won the 2025/26 UEFA Women’s Europa League. Kabzere plies her trade with French side Montpellier and brings valuable experience to the side. The Young Scorchers fell 2-0 in the first leg at Remo Stars Stadium, Ikenne. They now head into the return fixture at Bingu National Stadium aiming to overturn the deficit and secure a spot at the 2026 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in Poland.
