Davies Nkausu is one of the most popular and richest Zambian footballer who was born on January 1, 1986 in Lusaka, Lusaka Province, Zambia. Davies Nkausu (born 1 January 1986 located in Lusaka) is a footballer in association from Zambia. He currently plays for Baroka.
Nkausu was a youth player for Chiparamba Great Eagles before joining Pretoria University FC in 2003 He also played for Zambia internationally at various levels for youth players as captain of Zambia’s under-20 teambefore moving to the senior team in 2008.
Nkausu moved to SuperSport United ahead of the 2008–09 season. He had made a big leap from the lower reaches of the second division to the top of the first, and predictably made just five appearances in his debut season with the club, making his debut in the 1–0 win over Free State Stars on 30 August 2008. However, he still collected a winner’s medal as SuperSport claimed a second consecutive Premier Soccer League title. Nkausu only made three appearances the following season, playing in SuperSport’s victories over Free State Stars and Santos as well as the 3–0 loss to AmaZulu in March 2010. Again, SuperSport won the league title.
Part of the reason for this lack of playing time was the problem of Nkausu’s South African residence permit, which he became eligible for in 2010 having spent five years in the country. In September 2010, despite agreeing a two–year contract with SuperSport, the club decided to wait until Nkausu’s permit was granted until registering him, due to the PSL’s limit on foreign players. Nkausu said “I have signed a new two-year contract here but the condition is that it will become effective the moment I can be registered as a non-foreign player, that is after I get my permanent residency. Right now I am waiting for the papers to be issued so that I can at least start being available for selection because as we speak I am not even registered…Last season I was still registered as a foreigner but this time around I have to be a non-foreigner.” Nkausu finally received his residence permit in March 2011, commenting “The paperwork was completed three days ago and I’m just waiting for my Identity Document now. Just when I thought it would not go through, it finally happened”. This allowed Nkausu to be considered non–foreign, opening up another foreign space for manager Gavin Hunt.
Seven months after his testing at Manchester United, Nkausu left Zambia to join South African National First Division club Pretoria University, with the transfer taking place on 6 October 2003. He was a part of the team’s first squad during the 2004-05 season and played in 29 of Pretoria’s 34 games. Pretoria was ranked 12th in the 2004-05 season. In 2005-06, Davies was again a regular in the league, making twenty-nine appearances, however this time, he scored a goal. Pretoria was ranked eleventh in the league, and Nkausu was nearly always present during the 30 National First Division games. Nkausu was limited to twenty-six games during the 2006-07 season. However, his personal record of three goals. This was instrumental in propelling Pretoria University to a third-placed finishing and an opportunity to play in the promotion playoff. Pretoria beat Winners Park on away goals but lost in the final game of the playoffs by AmaZulu. Davies had fewer games in 2007-08, making just 17 appearances, as Pretoria fell to a seventh final in the newly introduced Inland Stream. Pretoria’s declining fortunes resulted in Nkausu to transfer to SuperSport United, who had recently been crowned their first Premier Soccer League and were consequently considered to be among the top clubs that existed in South Africa.
