Kenneth Malitoli (born 20 August 1966) is a Zambian coach and former footballer.
Malitoli was born in Kitwe and he attended Wusakile Primary and Mindolo Secondary Schools.
Nicknamed ‘Bubble’, Malitoli is one of Zambia’s most decorated players and was Zambian league top scorer in three consecutive seasons, as well as top scorer in Tunisia in 1993 and 1994.
He is regarded as Nkana Football Club’s most prolific striker after Bernard Chanda.
He won the CAF Champions League with Tunisian club Espérance in 1994 and featured at four CAN tournaments in 1990, 1994, 1996 and 1998.
Malitoli is currently coaching Zambian Division I South side Lusaka City Council.
He first joined Rhokana United’s Ajax Youth Academy in 1981 before being promoted to the main team three years later.
Malitoli was still a schoolboy when he made his debut in the 1985 season in a star-studded Rhokana side which had by then been renamed Nkana Red Devils.
Malitoli won the Zambian league’s top goal scorer award in 1989 and repeated the feat twice more in succession in 1990 and 1991, and declared that should he not clinch a professional contract outside Zambia in the 1992 season, then he would certainly retain the award as it had become ‘personal-to-holder.
Malitoli ran for election as a member of parliament in Kitwe’s Wusakile constituency, on the Heritage Party ticket. From a field of 9 candidates, he polled 11.75% of the votes to emerge second.
