CAFCC: Mighty Wanderers FC say preparations for Jwaneng Galaxy on track

Malawi’s Mighty Wanderers FC have given a positive update on their preparations for the CAF Confederation Cup assignments.

The Blantyre-based club’s chief executive officer Panganeni Ndovi told the media that they have stepped up their preparations to ensure a successful campaign.

Ndovi said the team is working tirelessly ahead of the first round first leg match against Botswana’s Jwaneng Galaxy at Bingu National Stadium in Lilongwe on September 21, 2025, in Lilongwe.

“The CAF Confederation Cup is a big stage to showcase our potential and abilities. It is also an opportunity to generate revenue for the Club. We are, therefore, doing everything possible to make our participation memorable and successful,” the CEO said.

Wanderers coach Bob Mpinganjira echoed Ndovi while further acknowledging the strength of their opponents.

“They are a good side, ranked 39th on the CAF Club rankings. “They are a good side, currently ranked 39th on the CAF Club rankings. This should motivate us to prepare thoroughly in all aspects. Where necessary, we shall add depth to the squad and make sure we are in shape for the competition,” the coach is quoted saying.

The Nomads first vice-captain Felix Zulu has since said players are geared up for the two-legged matches. “We are not just motivated to win, but we also have at the back of our minds that we are carrying our country’s flag. We have an obligation to make Wanderers mighty again,” Zulu said.

Wanderers are returning to the continental competition for the first time since 2018 when they were booted out by AS Vita from Congo. The Nomads have beefed up their squad with experienced striker Muhammad Sulumbu who has signed a seven-month contract.
