After a phenomenal season at Kabwe Warriors, newly signed Green Eagles keeper Mangani Banda remains keen on continuing where he left off after winning the Golden Gloves last season.
In an exclusive interview with Bolanews Banda took time to reflect on the transition from Kabwe to Choma, stating “Moving from Kabwe to Choma was a big step for me, but the guys made me feel welcome from day one.”
“The technical team, the management, and the fans have been amazing, Choma is a great place, very welcoming, so yeah—I’m fully settled in now and my head is just focused on the job here at Eagles,” he said.
It has been a blistering start to life for the Under-20 AFCON winner after maintaining two clean sheets from three games, while Mangani expressed delight in the record kep, he highlighted how clean sheets require a collective effort from every one in the team.
“Look, it’s a good start, but clean sheets aren’t just about me—it’s down to the whole team working hard from the front to the back.”
“To keep this going, we just have to stay grounded, We take it one game at a time, work hard in training every week, and keep communicating on the pitch.”
“If we stick to the coach’s plan and keep our concentration levels high, the results will keep coming.”

Mangani Banda has set his sights on winning yet another Golden Glove but has highlighted how individual awards only feel good when the team is winning.
In a Week five fixture, Green Eagles FC played to a goalless draw against Nkwazi FC at Edwin Imboela stadium on Saturday.
