Sinkala suffered a knee injury during Zambia's match against Congo DR last evening.

Team Doctor Joseph Kabungo has informed Football Association of Zambia that Sinkala will need at least four weeks to heal.

The loss of Sinkala is a big blow to Chipolopolo's hopes of success at the finals in Equatorial Guinea.
