  • kick442.com announced 24 hours earlier that Zanaco have signed Lambert Gueme Araina and it’s been confirmed this Friday by the club
  • Araina, who was CAF Confederation Cup top scorer in 2022 joins Zanaco on a two-year contract as a free agent
  • He will join the rest of the squad to battle for improvement in their performances next season 

Sensational club Zanaco have announced the signing of 25-year-old goal poacher, Lambert Gueme Araina after completing his capture on a two-year contract for an undisclosed fee.

The Cameroonian international completed formalities earlier this week and was signed this Thursday before being unveiled 24 hours later with the words; ” Welcome to the team (Zanaco)” via their social media handles.

Araina joins the club as a free agent, given that he was unattached after a season with Iraqi top-flight side, Karbala SC.

The 6 foot 1 center forward banged in seven goals and assisted three times for Karbala SC, before leaving the club at the end of his contract.

Upon return to the country, the former Pitso Mosimane and Al Ahli target decided to take up a new challenge in Zambia with Zanaco, despite several deals on the plate in North Africa.

For starters, Lambert received his first call-up with the Cameroon men’s senior national team on September 21, 2021, during the qualifiers for the 2022 World Cup against Mozambique.

A mythical club in Zambia, Zanaco has fallen well below their usual standards and look to build a team that will compete this 2024/25 season.

Zanaco Football Club finished 8th last season on 43 points, a massive 28 points behind eventual winners Red Arrows.

With a natural desire to compete for positions in interclub positions and possibly titles, the deal is huge, as sensational Zanaco looks to win an 8th Zambian league title.

A towering figure, Araina captivated fans whilst at Cotonsport with his dedication and clinical finishing.

From local pitches to CAF champions League and Confederations cup glory, he etched his name in Cameroon’s football history when he forced Cotonport’s legendary top scorer and Niger forward, Daouda Kamilou to retirement.

While Araina’s on-field persona exudes strength and power, he possesses a gentle side that often goes unnoticed, hence the reason why he was transfered from Cotonsport to FAR, under the recommendations of 2017 AFCON winning coach, Sven Vandenbroeck.
