The club is currently sponsored by Mopani Copper Mines, which is also the team's major owner. The club has also acquired a kit sponsorship deal with global online gambling company GAL Sports Betting.
In 2020, after the increase in the number of COVID-19 cases recorded in Zambia, Mopani Copper Mines reduced the sponsorship deal to the club by 50 percent, citing the failure of the copper prices due to the pandemic. The club decided to sign other sponsorship deals with The Zambia Revenue Authority and The Copperbelt University.
Nkana FC has one of the biggest fan bases in Zambia; the fans are known for their noisy and passionate support of their club.
History
Nkana FC is one of Zambia's oldest football clubs having been formed in 1935 in Kitwe's Wusakile township. The club was founded under the name of Rhokana United FC before it changed to Nkana Red Devils. In 1990, they were runners-up in the African Cup of Champions, the only Zambian team to reach the finals.
Nkana achieved success during the 1980s and early 1990s, winning nine league titles from 1982 to 1993, including their 1993 season in which the club became one of only two clubs, and the only African club, to have won the Sextuple. Coached by Moses Simwala, a number of prominent players ran out for Nkana during this time frame.
Nkana were relegated from the top flight of Zambian football for the first time in 2004, and their period in Division One was plagued by financial problems. Nkana returned to the top flight after winning the 2007 Division One North title.
Nkana has won the MTN/FAZ Super League 13 times, most recently in 2020.
On 23 May 2014, head coach Masautso Mwale died in a road traffic accident on the eve of their home game against Séwé Sport of the Ivory Coast in Group B in the 2014 CAF Confederation Cup. The accident occurred near the Maposa area and his car was overturned several times as he was driving back to join the team in Kitwe.
Nkana FC has a remarkable record in Zambian football, having won multiple league titles and domestic cups, making them one of the most decorated teams in the Zambian Premier League. The club's home matches are played at the Nkana Stadium, which boasts a vibrant atmosphere, especially during local derbies and crucial matches.
The team is known for its strong youth development program, which has produced numerous talented players who have gone on to represent Zambia at various levels, including the national team. Nkana FC's style of play is characterized by a blend of skillful attacking football and solid defensive organization, making them a formidable opponent in both domestic and continental competitions.
With a legacy of excellence and a commitment to nurturing local talent, Nkana FC continues to be a beacon of pride for its supporters and a key player in the landscape of Zambian football.
