    Liberia coach James Debbah has summoned foreign-based professionals for the upcoming 2019 Afcon qualifiers group G tie away to Zimbabwe on 11th June.

    Wydad Casablanca prolific striker William Jebor and Mamelodi Sundowns winger Antony Laffor make the list of fourteen, and will link up with the home-based professionals before they face the Warriors in Harare.
