Zimbabwe Reshuffle Squad for Unity Cup Semi-Final Against Nigeria

Zimbabwe have made three changes to their squad ahead of their Unity Cup semi-final against Nigeria's Super Eagles, with injury, club commitments, and personal reasons accounting for the absences.

Forward Tinotenda Kadewere, who plays for Greek Super League side Aris, has been ruled out through injury. Defender Divine Lunga misses out due to club commitments — the 30-year-old is part of the Mamelodi Sundowns squad for this weekend's CAF Champions League final second-leg against Morocco's AS FAR. The third absentee, Bill Antonio, requested to be excused for personal reasons.

Zimbabwe head coach Kaitano Tembo has called up Washington Navaya, Prosper Padera, and Isheanesu Mauchi as replacements for the three departed players.

The Warriors face holders Nigeria on Tuesday, 26 May at The Valley — the home ground of Sky Bet Championship club Charlton Athletic. The winners will advance to the final at the same venue on Saturday, 30 May, where they will meet either India or Jamaica.
