Zakuani to play for DR Congo

Steve Zakuani has made decided his international future and was called into the Democratic Republic of Congo this week. DRC play a friendly against Mali at Stade Roger Rochard in Paris on Wednesday. A big week for Steve Zakuani, he’s good enough to make a difference at that level, I’m interested in how he does.

His brother Gabriel Zakuani plays for Peterbrough United in England and is also in the squad announced this week.

In the last few weeks he’s been linked to DR Congo and England, with a third option of waiting a couple of years to play for the US National team.

In the current FIFA rankings Mali are 64th. The DR Congo are 124th after poor results in the Africa Nations cup and World cup qualifying over the last couple of years.
