Last year, the Zimbabwean media unearthed a number of players in the UK who have come through development structures.

Among some of the players discovered are the son of Highlanders and Zimbabwe wing sensation of the 1980s Madinda Ndlovu. His son Ingo Madinda Junior Ndlovu (19), plays as a defensive midfielder for Sheffield United.
Another is Cecil Nyoni who                     plays at Sheffield United as a defensive link.
Of all the UK-based players there have just been two call-ups of Matthew Rusike now with Jomo Cosmos and Trevor Mutero despite repeated calls to cast the net wider.
Oscar Oskido Sibanda of Emakhandeni is with Galway United FC in the Irish Premiership.
Farai Hallam (20), is a defender with Stevenage, while David Deeney (25) is a fullback with  Luton FC in the British lower divisions.

Munyaradzi Mbanje-Tande (16) plays as a forward for Leeds United FC.
Brandon Galloway (16), is an attacking midfielder at Milton Keynes.
Cliff Moyo who was capped at Under-18 level for English schools with Manchester City’s Joe Hart, plays for League One side Barrow AFC and is on trial with Stoke City.

It is every player’s dream to be capped by his country of birth and there are dozens more of unknown players in South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the United States of America, Norway, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Ireland.
