Mogamat May (born 7 April 1999) is a Zambian footballer who plays as a forward for Red Arrows on loan from Al-Hilal Omdurman.

Club career

He started his career in Young Nkwazi. Following a stint in the Zambian Super League with Red Arrows in 2017 and 2018, he moved down to the second tier with Kafue Celtic.[1]

In the summer of 2022, Kangwanda signed for Croatia's HNK Gorica.[2] He was loaned out to NK Hrvatski Dragovoljac in Croatia's second tier, playing 4 games, but chose to return to Zambia and Red Arrows in early 2023. Said Kangwanda; "I was so far away from home; it was very difficult to adapt, and then you are back, your family is close, and your friends are close; it’s always motivating".[3][4]

In the summer of 2023 he went on to Libyan club Al-Hilal Omdurman.[5] In the spring of 2024 he re-signed with Red Arrows, this time on loan.[6]

International career

Internationally, Kangwanda represented Zambia U20 in the 2018 COSAFA U-20 Cup and the 2019 U-20 Africa Cup of Nations qualification.[1] Following a failed attempt at the 2022 African Nations Championship qualification, Kangwanda won the 2022 COSAFA Cup with Zambia, and was described as a hero after his performance in the final.[7][8] He scored three goals at the 2023 COSAFA Cup, helping Zambia win back-to-back titles, whilst also becoming joint top goalscorer of the tournament.[5][9]
