With the DR Congo taking on Libya in the African nations latest African Cup of Nations Qualifier Nonda, his countries captain, had been hoping to win his first cap in almost a year.
Having missed the African Cup of Nations Finals in January due to injury, he would miss the Congolese’s last qualifier with Namibia due to the move he had undertaken to Ewood Park.
