Chipolopolo coach Aljosa Asanovic has named his 23-member squad for the 2022 Hollywoodbets Cosafa Cup.
Asanovic has named an all-local squad that comprises a mix of youth and experience that will also act as a preparatory ground for the July 24 African Nations Championship tie against Mozambique in Maputo.
The Chipolopolo will join the tournament at the quarterfinal stage with a tie against the winners of Group A that comprises Botswana, Angola, Comoros, and Seychelles.
Asanovic has roped in youngsters Enock Sakala junior, Jimmy Mukeya and Joshua Mutale in his assemblage.
Green Eagles defender Warren Kunda has also been handed a call up in recognition of hard-tackling antics for the Choma based side.
The Chipolopolo will enter camp on June 29 in Lusaka.
Asanovic will be hoping to scan through the best local talents that he may also consider for the September round of the Ivory Coast 2023 Africa Cup of Nations back-to-back clashes with Lesotho.
The 2022 Cosafa tournament will run from July 5-17 in Durban, South Africa.
