Sredojevic explains how Zambia will cope without Red Bull Salzburg’s Daka

Zambia head coach Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredojevic has revealed how they will cope without Red Bull Salzburg striker Patson Daka.

The forward was injured during the Uefa Champions League match against Atletico Madrid which they lost 3-2 on October 27. The injury is now likely to rule Daka out of the African Cup of Nations qualifiers against Botswana in November.

“We have been talking to him [Daka] every day especially after that injury,” Micho is quoted by the Federation of Zambia Facebook page as saying.
