He shared!
As I write to you, my heart is filled with both gratitude and emotion. After many years ofdedication, sacrifice, joy, and unforgettable experiences in the beautiful game, I have made the decision that in June 2026 I will officially retire from active football.
Football has given me far more than I could ever have imagined from brotherhood, life lessons, challenges, victories, and memories that I will carry with me forever.
Among the mostcherished of those are the moments we shared on the pitch, wearing the same colours, fighting for the same badge, celebrating victories, and overcoming difficult moments together.
To mark this important chapter in my life, I am organizing a farewell match that will bring together both former and current teammates who have been part of my journey.
As fans of the the beautiful game, you are one of those who made this journey meaningful, and your presence whether in person or in spirit would mean a great deal to me.
Your presence will not simply be a formality; it will serve as a lasting reminder of the bonds we built, the battles we fought side by side, and the brotherhood that football created between us.
Above all, thank you for everything, It has truly been an honor. Hope to see you at the match. With deep appreciation and respect,
Evans Kangwa.
