ZESCO United Celebrates John Ching’andu’s Legacy of Loyalty and Titles
ZESCO United has officially honored veteran midfielder John Ching’andu as a true club legend, marking a career filled with loyalty, leadership, and silverware. Promoted from the club’s development side, Young ZESCO, in 2007, Ching’andu has built a storied legacy as one of the most decorated players in Zambian football history.
Over nearly two decades with the Ndola-based giants, Ching’andu has amassed an eye-watering trophy collection, including 9 MTN Super League titles and 7 ABSA Cup triumphs, the most by any player in the club’s history. His influence in midfield and role as a leader have been instrumental in ZESCO United’s dominance of the domestic scene.
The club paid glowing tribute in a heartfelt social media post, noting:
“John Ching’andu has won all the titles for ZESCO United since his promotion from Young ZESCO in 2007. He’s played for ZESCO all his life. Captained the team for 5 years. We celebrate you! Receive your flowers.”
Ching’andu’s career stands out not only for his achievements but also for his remarkable loyalty. A one-club man, he has spent his entire professional journey in ZESCO colors — a rarity in modern football. This deep-rooted commitment has made him a fan favorite and a lasting symbol of the club’s values.
