As reported by The Guardian, the coach would have touched the breasts of one of his players before the triumph of his team against Costa Rica last Monday.
The British newspaper, which had access to sources familiar with the incident and close to the Zambian squad, states that several players saw Mwape rub their hands against the soccer player’s breasts. The witnesses to the event did not report the situation to fear of retaliationno matter how much the African team was already eliminated after their defeat (5-0) against Spain.
Investigation
FIFA confirmed that it is carrying out an investigation against Mwape, although it did not want to give more details about the new situation. The highest European body already had a file open against the coach. Although the African coach was able to carry out his work normally during this World Cup.
