Kalaba was one of the key members of the Chipolopolo side that won their first Africa Cup of Nations title in Gabon in February .
At club level, his Congolese side TP Mazembe are in the group stages of the African Champions League, where they face Berekum Chelsea of Ghana and Egyptian giants Al Ahly and Zamalek.
But the 25-year-old thinks Mazembe, the four-time African club champions, have enough armour to claim their fifth title.
"It is very important for me to win the Champions League," he told BBC Sport.
"It will add value to my career.
"It will bring glory to my country Zambia as well as to the Congolese people.
"We will approach our opponents with respect but we will not let the points slip away."
Kalaba only joined Mazembe last year and within months of moving to Katanga province, where the club is based, they were thrown out of the Champions League for allegedly fielding an ineligible player.
