Tembo previously played 284 matches and scored 15 goals for Odense BK,[1] having joined them in the summer of 1997 from Olympique Marseille, where he had a short spell. Prior to that he played for Zamsure FC.
Tembo earned 35 caps for the Zambia national team. As a young player in April 1993 he almost boarded the fateful flight which killed the entire Zambia squad, however he was asked not to board the flight at the last minute.[2]
In 2012, he was selected to Odense BKs all-time top-11 "De største striber" (The greatest "stripes") by OBs fans.
