BLANTYRE-(MaraviPost)—Nyasa Big Bullets executive committee says will summon defender Precious Sambani after the family of the wonder kid apologised to the Peoples Team for the conduct of their child.

Precious threatened to terminate his contract with the team on grounds that the team frustrated his move to Ukraine.

However, Sambani’s mother Aggie- Mfune said her son overreacted when he penned Bullets that he wanted to terminate his contract.

“We want to apologise to the club for our sons conduct as he did not seek our guidance and blessing as parents. We believe Pule [Precious] did that out of peer pressure,” she said as quoted in the Times.

 In response, Bullets Chief Administration Officer, Albert Chigoga, said Sambani was yet to be summoned after officially expressing his intent to leave the club.

“We haven’t been in touch yet with his [Precious] parents and we also haven’t summoned him. Precious is our baby, we will call him to hear his side of the story,” he said.

Sambani alongside Hassan Kajoke travelled to Kenya early this year to process their Visa to Ukraine to undergo trials at second tier (Persha Liga) side FC Rukh Lviv.

Meanwhile, reports suggest that a South African club was also after Sambani’s signature but Bullets were yet to respond.

Scoring machine Nelson Kangunje signs two-year deal with Bullets: sigh of relief from fans

Nelson Kangunje

Misfiring Nyasa Big Bullets, having gone four games without locating the back of the net, have completed the signing of former Civo United playmaker, Nelson Kangunje, on a two-year deal.

The People’s Team, who are on 14th place on the TNM Super League log table, with one point from two games, unveiled the midfielder at the sponsor’s Nyasa Manufacturing Company’s base in Blantyre Thursday.

Bullets have reportedly paid MwK2 million signing-on fee for Kangunje, who has terminated his contract with Mozambican side, Costa do Sol.

The player’s manager, Jimmy Linje, claimed that Costa do Sol failed to honour Kangunje’s contractual obligations.

The player brings to Bullets versatility as he can play from box-to-box, mark and create goals. More importantly, Kangunje, who has two caps, has an eye for the goal. He bursts from the deep to score.

He joins Bullets when there is pressure after the club was booted out of the Airtel Top 8 Cup by Silver Strikers.

“I was approached by my agent Linje that Bullets wanted me, and I accepted the challenge. I will try my best to deliver, and I would like to ask Bullets’ fans to welcome me as they did with other players,” Kangunje said.

“It was hard for us in Mozambique, but I don’t want to talk much about what happened there. I hope to help Bullets to return to winning ways,” he said.

Kanganje helped Civo to win the 2015 Standard Bank Cup.

Bullets Interim General Secretary, Albert Chigoga, said they were hopeful that Kanjunje would help turn around the team’s fortunes.

“He is a good player and we are hopeful that he will help us. Let us admit that we are under pressure due to the poor run of the team,” Chigoga said.
