Malawi striker Khuda Myaba has sparked controversy by publicly declaring himself equal to the country's most accomplished forwards while dismissing current national team players as inferior. The Scotland FC player posted assertions on social media comparing himself favorably to celebrated strikers Gabadinho Mhango and Chiukepo Msowoya while suggesting other forwards do not merit similar recognition.
Myaba's international record shows five goals across 29 appearances for the Flames, with most coming during COSAFA Cup competitions rather than World Cup qualifiers. By contrast, Mhango has accumulated 20 goals in 75 matches while Msowoya scored 22 times in 88 games. The comments appeared aimed at Babatunde Adepoju, who recently earned his second cap without finding the net but currently leads the TNM Super League with 12 goals for Nyasa Big Bullets.
The forward has not received selection under the current coach, Kalisto Pasuwa and has featured in fewer than five matches for his Zimbabwean club this season. His outspoken social media presence has previously drawn attention for criticizing former coaches over squad decisions.
