[1] At Tigers, Musenge who started off as an attacking midfielder and occasionally played on the right wing, was a regular goal scorer.
Tigers officials protested to the Football Association of Zambia (FAZ) to no avail, and labelled mine management "pro-Wanderers.
In 1979, Musenge suffered a broken leg at that year's CECAFA tournament in a 2–2 draw with Tanzania, which would keep him out of action for more than a season.
[1] Musenge was first called to the national team by John Green as a 19-year-old in 1968 and made his debut when Zambia played a friendly match against Tanzania on 24 October 1968, in preparation for a World Cup qualifier against Sudan.
Due to the superb pairing of Dickson Makwaza and Dick Chama at the heart of Zambia's defence, Musenge would spend some time as a squad player without seeing much action.
In a CAN 1972 qualifier in Kinshasa in June 1971 which Zambia lost 3–0, Musenge replaced midfielder Richard Stephenson as a second-half substitute and when he did cement a regular spot in the team, it was as a left-back.
After the retirement of first Makwaza and then Chama in the mid-'70s, Musenge assumed the central defence position and was named captain in January 1977.
Musenge fractured his leg in November 1979 at that year's CECAFA tournament and this ended his national team career.
After a long lay-off, he attempted a comeback in October 1981 but a knee injury, which required an operation brought down the curtain on his playing career.
In 1991, Musenge was appointed assistant national team coach to Ndhlovu, along with Freddie Mwila, Emmanuel Musakabantu and George Mungwa for the regional CECAFA tournament in Sudan which Zambia won after beating Kenya 2–0 in the final, despite not fielding any of their big name players.
[1] He joined Zambia National Service-sponsored Young Green Eagles in Kafue and helped the team win promotion to Division I.
In appreciation of this, the ZNS command transferred him to Green Eagles in Kabwe where he worked with coach Jim Mwale in guiding the team to the Super Division.
