Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>Zambia Women\u2019s National team striker Grace Chanda has joined Spanish top flight outfit Madrid CFF. The Copper Queens forward joins Spanish side Madrid de Futbol Femenino (Madrid CFF) on a two-year-deal.<\/p>\n

She leaves Kazakhstan after a short spell with BIIK Kazygurt where she scored defining goals including a historic hat-trick in the UEFA Women\u2019s Champions League.<\/p>\n

In July, Chanda helped the Copper Queens clinch bronze at the 2022 Women\u2019s Africa Cup in Morocco with three goals to her name and was the top goalscorer in the 2021 Women\u2019s National League season with 35 goals.<\/p>\n

Chanda is synonymous with scoring goals and was the top goalscorer in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics qualifiers for Africa with eight goals. She also scored 86 goals in 26 games for ZESCO Ndola Girls in 2018.<\/p>\n
