The League Board will at any time announce the continuation of the schedule after the national teams of Tanzania and Zambia are released in the ongoing Afcon 2023 in Ivory Coast
Chief Executive of the Board Almas Kasongo has said that anytime from today they will announce the date of the return of the league
Kasongo said that according to the rules, a team that will have three players in the national team, its matches will stop but currently there is no major league team that has three or more players in the national team
"As we said before, our League will officially return when we return from the Afcon 2023 finals, the important thing is that we follow the rules"
"If the club has at least three players in the national team, it means that its games will stop, but with the environment we have, you don't see that anymore"
"Tomorrow (today) we will sit as a Board to summarize and officially announce the return date of the NBC Premier League. How do we return? We will return to where we left off," said Kasongo
The five stars of Simba Aishi Manula, Mohammed Hussein, Mzamiru Yassin, Kibu Denis and Clatous Chama who were in Ivory Coast to participate in the Afcon 2023 championship will join their colleagues who returned to training yesterday
Simba will still miss defender Hennock Inonga Baka who DR Congo qualified for the round of 16 and will face Egypt on January 28
