Career

Patson Daka was born on October 9, 1998 and played in his youth for the football club Nchanga Rangers FC from the city of Chingola, which is sponsored by the Konkola Copper Mines . In October 2014 he then moved to the Green Buffaloes association from the capital Lusaka, which is sponsored by the Zambian armed forces . There he made his debut in the same year at the age of 14 in the men's team with play in the Zambian first class . With the green buffalo, he finished the 2014 game year on the tenth of 16 places in the table in the sometimes very closely staggered final ranking. In 2015 he was able to improve increasingly with the team and ranked fourth with the team at the end of the season, just seven points behind champions ZESCO United . Daka had developed into a regular player this year and had already played successfully for the Zambian U-17 , U-20 and U-23 selections and recommended himself for A-team boss Honor Janza .

Daka celebrated his first successes from July 2014, when he was still active on a club basis with the Nchanga Rangers and took part in the qualification for the U-17 African Championship the following year with a Zambian U-17 selection . He and his home country won the two second round games against Botswana and the two third round games against Uganda and thus made it to the finals in Niger from February 15 to March 1, 2015 with Zambia . He finished the qualification with five goals scored in four international matches as top scorer. In the subsequent finals he was under coach Chris Kaunda in the 21-man squad that consisted exclusively of players playing in Zambia. With the team he retired after three completed group games, in which he scored two goals and was the team's top scorer, still in the group stage from the current tournament. In the same year he took part with the Zambian U-20 national team at the U-20 African Football Championship 2015 in Senegal , where he and the team were eliminated from the current tournament after three games as group B bottom. The two semi-finalists and the two finalists then qualified for the U-20 World Cup in New Zealand two months later . He was also used for the U-23 Zambia .

Around this time he made his debut under Honor Janza in the Zambian national team , when he played in a friendly international match against Malawi for the full 90 minutes on May 10, 2015 and won the game 2-0. Having thus the first time in preparation for the subsequent COSAFA Cup 2015 in the province of North West in South Africa was in use, it has also been used by Janza in just this. Zambia was only seeded from the quarter-finals, but was only eliminated there on penalties with 4: 5 against the eventual tournament winner Namibia . Here Daka came in as a substitute for Bornwell Mwape in the second half and was also used as a Mwape substitute from the 70th minute in the 3-0 victory in the consolation round over the visiting Ghanaians . In the subsequent game for 5th place against Malawi, which Malawi also won 1-0, Patson Daka was no longer in the official squad. After participating in a qualifying game for the 2017 African Cup of Nations against Guinea-Bissau in June 2015, he played a month later in a qualifying game for the 2016 African Nations Cup against Namibia. After the end of Honor Janza's contract was announced in March 2015, he worked under the interim employee George Lwandamina .

Under Lwandamina, he was then also in Zambia's 23-man squad in January 2016, which took part in the 2016 African Nations Cup in Rwanda . With the team he came as group winners of Group D to the quarter-finals, where he and the team lost 4-5 on penalties to the rivals from Guinea . Patson Daka had been used in two of his team's four games up to this point and remained goalless. After initially training for the local club Kafue Celtic , he was subsequently taken on on a club basis by the Power Dynamos , with whom he started the 2016 game year. He scored his first goal in his first league game, the 2-1 first round win over the NAPSA Stars , for the team from Kitwe in northern Zambia, which is sponsored by the Copperbelt Energy Corporation .

In January 2017 it was awarded to the Austrian second division club FC Liefering . He won the 2017 UEFA Youth League with FC Red Bull Salzburg's U-19s . He was able to score the 1: 1 goal in the 2-1 win in the final against Benfica Lisbon .

For the 2017/18 season he was permanently signed by FC Red Bull Salzburg, with whom he received a contract valid until June 2022. He made his debut for Red Bull Salzburg in August 2017 when he came on for Fredrik Gulbrandsen in the 56th minute of the second leg of the Europa League qualifying playoff against FC Viitorul Constanța .
