In a shocking expose, Zambian football sensation Fashion Sakala Jr. has spoken out against the national team coach's disrespectful treatment of Avram Grant, revealing a toxic culture of favoritism and bullying within the team. Sakala, a talented forward, reveals in a licked audio recording that Avram Grant labeled him "lazy" and a "bad player." The coach's venomous words cut deep, but Sakala has refused to be silenced. "I responded to him, and I spoke to him too," Sakala said in a recording with Football Association of Zambia (Faz) communication manager Sydney Mungala. "I told him that I respect his decision if he doesn't want me on the squad, but he doesn't need to send me disrespectful audio." Sakala also accused the coach of favoritism, citing players who are not regulars in their clubs but make the national team due to shared agents. "It's not fair," Sakala emphasized. "I'm not a kid coming from an academy where you can dictate what agent I should use." Despite the coach's harsh words, Sakala remains committed to the national team. "I will always support them, even if I'm not there," he said. "I will remain a Zambian, and I will play for Zambia because I love my country." Sakala's courage in speaking out has sparked a wider conversation about the need for accountability and respect within the national team. As he emphasized, "We are doing it for the generation to come... We are doing it to inspire the kids." Follow Zed Sport for all the latest sports news updates.
