Pasuwa courts Darikwa, Bonne

WARRIORS coach, Kalisto Pasuwa has revived his interest in English Premier League club Burnley defender, Tendayi Darikwa, as he studies his options in a bid to assemble the strongest possible squad for the 2017 African Cup of Nations (Afcon) finals to be held in Gabon in the new year.

Darikwa has previously been called to the national team, but turned down the opportunity to represent Zimbabwe, with reports suggesting he has aspirations to play for England.

But after failing to hold a first team spot at Burnley so far this season, the talented right-back, who can also play in midfield, has seen his chances of playing for England diminish.
