Three coaches from English Premier Soccer League Giants Chelsea FC arrived in the country yesterday for Shield-Chelsea talent search.

The initiative is sponsored by Unilever under the Shield deodorant brand and will see one lucky Zimbabwean getting a once in a lifetime opportunity of flying to London, England.

Thirty-five finalists aged 18-25 years were selected from the try-outs held in Harare and Bulawayo and have been in camp for the past week.

Four local football coaches who include, former Warriors gaffer Kalisto Pasuwa, Cosmas ‘Tsano’ Zulu, Naison Mchekela and Alois Bunjura conducted the trials.

The coaches from the EPL side will assess the selected players in the capital on the 25 of July and pick the final winner.
