Zambian striker Chanka Zimba has left Inverness Caledonian Thistle FC after helping the team win the Scottish League One title and promotion to the second tier.

Caledonian Thistle confirmed that the 24-year-old has left the club following the expiration of his contract.

He joined the club at the beginning of the season from English sixth-tier side Marine FC and came to life in Scotland, scoring 19 goals and providing four assists in 43 matches.

His performances in Scotland earned him a call-up to the national team, where he went on to make his international debut for Zambia against Argentina in April this year.
