DR Congo lost 2-0 to Uganda and Egypt, with Mulumbu an unused sub in both matches, but he started in a 4-0 win over Zimbabwe.

However, the Leopards could still qualify as one of the best third-placed teams.

Mulumbu joined Celtic in the summer of 2018, signing a two-year deal after leaving the Rugby Park side. However, the former Paris Saint-Germain and West Bromwich Albion star played just three times for the Hoops and rejoined Killie in the January transfer window.

He featured 12 times for Killie as the Ayrshire side finished third and qualified for Europe.
