Munetsi, Zemura bounce back in Warriors squad as Kaitano Tembo names Zimbabwe Unity Cup team

Marshall Munetsi has made a timely return to the Warriors squad for the upcoming Unity Cup, marking a major boost for Zimbabwe ahead of the invitational tournament set to be played in the United Kingdom later this month.

Marshall Munetsi has made a timely return to the Warriors squad for the upcoming Unity Cup, providing a major boost for Zimbabwe ahead of the invitational tournament set to be played in the United Kingdom later this month.

The Paris FC midfielder returns to the national team fold after nearly five months following his controversial omission from the 2025 AFCON finals squad by former head coach Marian Marinica.

Munetsi’s exclusion from the squad had sparked widespread debate, with reports suggesting it stemmed from a fallout between the midfielder and Marinica, who resigned from his role last month.

Also making a notable return to the Warriors squad is Italy-based defender Jordan Zemura, who rejoins the national team for the first time since November last year.

Zemura is said to have turned down all the previous national team calls in solidarity with Munetsi.
