The deputy Zambia captain returned to camp in Ndola on Monday after he was given four days compassionate leave following the death of his sister last Wednesday.
The defender from French Ligue 2 club Sochaux was part of training on Monday night at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium where Wednesday’s 2015 Africa Cup Group F qualifier against Niger will be played.
Team manager Lusekelo Kamwambi says the technical bench will assess the situation whether Sunzu will lead Chipolopolo in battle.
Should Sunzu not captain the team on compassionate grounds, the armband will go to the third skipper midfielder Nathan Sinkala.
Sinkala captained Zambia against Niger in the scoreless first leg on October 11 before handing over the armband to Katongo in the 78th minute when he came on for Chisamba Lungu.
Katongo was axed from the team just 24 hours after Zambia returned from Niger for what coach Honour Janza termed as in the interest of unity and team spirit

Should Zambia lose, the coarch should axed as well
But let him stop apply ambi,we want truly zambian boy not congole kasai.
Yes…its high time people started taking their careers seriously. I urge whoever is concerned to be very strict with the players before the game…what Chris Katongo did is an eye opener….I believe 100% that it is one of the contribution factors to our losing most games…you find players cant run faster, etc….Kanshi ninshi the previous nite chenze kulila!
yes if we are not going to butcher this game against niger, janza should prepare to be butchered
TRUE JANZA WIL BE AXED

A lesson learnt, anyone can be replaced anytime hence every player need to be disciplined.

Too bad for Chris bt nabakula nokukula batusheko so that bakalemonana bwino necilihule. Zambia must win or else Kambwili wil teach them a lesson actually let him go and warn them in a dressing room for an hour.
