The Chililabombwe club, who enjoying a rare good spell currently lead the Super Division table on 26 points, have accused their struggling neighbors from down the road in Chingola of flirting with assistant coach Manfred Chabinga and some key players.
Chabinga is number 2 to Keagan Mumba with whom he was appointed to the Blades bench with at the start of this season.
“Nchanga are trying to steal the success that we are enjoying,” Blades chairman Richard Musukwa said.
Musukwa went on further to say that Nchanga are also trying to lure at least six Blades players to bolster the Chingola side that is struggling in 10th place and have been in free-fall since their Caf Confederation Cup first round exit in March.
However, Nchanga chairman Richard Kazala has described the accusations by Blades as nonsense.
Meanwhile, a source at Nchanga has revealed that no official contact was ever made to talk to Chabinga but that the club is targeting striker Ephraim Banda during this July local transfer window.
Banda is a former Nchanga player and is currently enjoying good form at Blades where he is top scorer with 5 goals to his credit.

I don’t see any reazon why Blades are crying foul by mere allegationz of Brave courting their playerz az if there iz anything wrong with it. If  Konkola playerz or coach are entertaining Nchanga advancez, then there iz something they are not happy with despite the Chililabombwe club enjoying a rare good spell and currently leading the Super League table.

Football is a short career. Let the players go where tnhey will make good money. If you want to keep them, give them what they want. These boys need to secure their future. Don’t hinder their progress, they were not brought up by Blades.
and they are better off playing for a bigger team of Bravo pedigre than remain with a team leading the table midway of the season bu will finish 10th after game 30

Competition is healthy. Therefore let any team feel free to acquire the services of any player or coach as long as they are able to convince them.:-?
Money is what matters. Yet to confirm. My sources are still in the dark.
