Lubumbashi giants TP Mazembe and their midfielder Zmabian International have come to an agreement to terminate the vetern midfielder after agreeing on a mutual conscent, Felele247 Media understands.

The 36 years old will join the team technical staff as a backroom staff, after joining the club in 2011, where he won the CAF Champions League and CAF Confederation Cup titles.
He is regarded as one of the best Zambian midfielders and footballers in the Congo Kinshasa Linafoot league.

He made his 100th international appearance against Mozambique national football team in June 2017 but was substituted in a 1–0 defeat and was in the opinion of national team manager Wedson Nyirenda too hasty to return to the dressing room rather than watch his teammates and needed to be disciplined.

He was not chosen in the squads for the 2018 World Cup qualifying matches against Algeria national football team and Nigeria national football team in autumn 2017.
