Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 28180, member: 2262"] Knowledge Musona has decided to play soccer again for Zimbabwe after stepping away from the national team. The former captain, aged 34, will join the Warriors for their next matches against Benin and Nigeria as part of the 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers. Musona left the international competition back in May 2022 but changed his mind after Warriors coach Michael Nees kept asking him to come back. He currently earns his living with Al Okhdood, a team that competes in the Saudi Pro League. Musona originally quit playing for his country because he wanted to concentrate on his club responsibilities. He also believed younger athletes should have chances to represent Zimbabwe. His return brings valuable experience to the squad, considering his impressive record of 54 appearances and 24 goals during his previous 12 years with the national team. The midfielder stands among the most accomplished players ever to wear the Zimbabwe jersey. Coach Nees has recently successfully convinced several veteran players to return. Khama Billiat had earlier walked away from international duties but agreed to rejoin the team under Nees' leadership. Washington Arubi, who had been passed over for selection many times, earned another opportunity with the current coaching staff. These experienced additions strengthen the Warriors squad considerably. The Zimbabwe team hopes Musona's scoring abilities and leadership qualities will improve their chances of qualifying for the World Cup. His knack for finding the net could prove crucial during the upcoming qualifying matches. Fans across the country have expressed excitement about seeing their former captain compete once again for the national colors. Musona remains popular among supporters who remember his contributions over many years. [/QUOTE]
