Zimbabwe coach Kalisto Pasuwa targets Burnley, Everton stars

Zimbabwe coach Kalisto Pasuwa is targeting two Premier League stars for his Africa Cup of Nations squad.

Everton fullback Brendan Galloway, currently on-loan at West Brom, and Burnley defender Tendai Darikwa are both on his radar.

“As the technical team, we are always looking for good players and as for the England-based guys like Darikwa and Galloway, they have not been responding positively to come and play for the national team," said Pasuwa to News Day.

“Maybe it's because they are still weighing their options to see if they could play for Zimbabwe or England. But we will try to reconsider them in the build-up to the January tournament if they are available. They might have made a decision on the national team they want to play for."
