Emmanuel Mayuka (born 21 November 1990) is a Zambian professional footballer who plays as a striker for the NAPSA Stars and the Zambia national team.

Before opting to join Maccabi Tel Aviv, Mayuka was close to signing for Portuguese side Porto, but the move never materialised.

On 28 May 2010, it was confirmed that Mayuka had signed a five-year contract with Swiss club BSC Young Boys[3] for a transfer fee of £1.7m as a replacement for Seydou Doumbia, who was sold to CSKA Moscow.

On 17 February 2011, Mayuka scored a last-minute goal against Russian club FC Zenit Saint Petersburg in UEFA Europa League match to help his team to a 2–1 home win.

Despite not scoring there, many soccer pundits and fans acknowledged his contribution to one of the finest youth squads in Zambian football history.

[15] Mayuka was not part of the U-20s that participated earlier that year at the African Youth Cup in Congo (where Zambia finished fourth) but, in the first game against Jordan, he was picked in the starting line-up, and remained such for the other two group stage matches and the round-of-16 clash with Nigeria.
