Jonah Fabisch, the son of the late Reinhard, is set to play
for Young Warriors after he was included in the squad to face South Africa.
He is on the books of German side Hamburger SV. It could
not be established last night if Jonah has Zimbabwean citizenship.
Eight years ago, his mother, Chawada, the daughter of a
Mutoko businessman, told The Herald that Jonah will consider playing for the
Warriors if he fails to break into the German national teams. “Jonah is in so
many ways like his father. Even though he inherited a lot of my features he has
his father’s colours – the light cloured hair, the green/blue eyes and the pale
complexion are all from his father.
“But the shape of the eyes, the lips and even the teeth
formation are truly mine. ‘A child of the sun’ we called him sometimes. Jonah
has a passion for football. He was just born that way I think. It’s in his
genes.
“I am sure Reinhard is just as proud of Jonah as l am and l
do believe that in spirit he is with us and always will be.”
