A homegrown Malawian star just made a major leap to a continental giant. Forward Chikumbutso Salima completed a transfer from FCB Nyasa Big Bullets to Sudanese powerhouse Al-Merrikh Sporting Club. The twenty-four-year-old rose through the Bullets reserve system after joining from Lawrence Waya Academy. His early play earned him a Reserves’ Players’ Player of the Season award and a top scorer title in a domestic cup.

A loan spell at Bangwe All Stars saw him collect individual honors and help the Blantyre club secure a top-eight league finish. Promotion to the Bullets' first team followed, where Salima became a dominant attacking force. He tallied twenty-nine goals and thirty-one assists across sixty-nine total appearances for the senior side.

His final season featured twenty-eight league matches with fifteen goals and thirteen assists, earning a shared Golden Boot award with Babatunde Adepoju. He also appeared in both domestic cup competitions. Bullets released a statement thanking Salima for his incredible contributions and wishing him success with Al-Merrikh SC. The move marks a significant step for a player developed entirely within the Malawian system.
