Mwase said Malisero has always been in his plan and will add depth in the striking force.

“He is a dedicated youngster and very strong. I worked with him at the Under 20 and I know He will give us an edge in our preparations.

“We have been monitong him and we think this is the right time for him to come and join us,” said Mwase.

The Flames match will be played behind closed doors at the Mpira Stadium in Chiwembe on Sunday.
