Rainford Kalaba (born 14 August 1986) is a Zambian former professional footballer who played as a midfielder.

Career

Kalaba was born in Kitwe.

He signed a five-year contract with Primeira Liga side Braga in April 2008.[1]

In October 2013, due to a disagreement between their club TP Mazembe and the Zambian Football Association over international call-ups, Kalaba and two other players (Nathan Sinkala and Stoppila Sunzu) were the subject of a Zambian arrest warrant.[2] All three players later had their passports confiscated by Zambian immigration authorities,[3] before being pardoned by the Zambian government.[4]

He made his 100th international appearance against Mozambique national football team in June 2017[5] but was substituted in a 1–0 defeat and was in the opinion of national team manager Wedson Nyirenda too hasty to return to the dressing room rather than watch his teammates and needed to be disciplined.[6] He was not chosen in the squads for the 2018 World Cup qualifying matches against Algeria and Nigeria in autumn 2017.[7]
