"He's a fantastic person so whatever he does he will succeed in his life, but it's a shame we won't see him on the football pitch."

Devastating news about Enock Mwepu this morning. A key part of what made Salzburg fun to watch during his time in Austria, nicknamed ‘The Computer’ for his reading of the game, and a real pioneer for Zambian players. The best of luck and good health to him in his next venture. https://t.co/rhVe80IH0q

I covered him at the 2017 AFCON U20 in Lusaka and immediately saw a typical generational talent. Really so sorry for him. 🥺🥺 pic.twitter.com/dNjQTeOwgP
Forever My Zambian King 🇿🇲👑

Life has to be bigger than football. And your life is more important 💙🤍
I doubt I'll ever write poetry about a player and a club as passionately as I have done about @EnockMwepu45 and @OfficialBHAFC. On the pitch, he is poetry in motion! I'm not sure what's next but whatever it is, he has my full support!
