Cameroon reclaims talents from France As a prelude for the first two days in the qualifiers AFCON 2023<\/strong>The Indomitable Lions’ manager-coach, Rigobert Song, has just shared a list with 34 of his shortlisted candidates. Rigobert Song has compiled his list with the names regular players from the young French teams.<\/p>\n

Nkoudou becomes a ‘Lion’s”<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The first is called Georges Kevin Nkoudou<\/strong><\/a>. After being shunning Cameroon’s national team for many years, the Besiktas striker is now feeling better. The Versailles native understood that he won’t be able to play for the Blues after being passed by the French Espoirs U17, U19 and U20. In recent weeks, the former Paris Saint-Germain, Olympique du Marseille and Tottenham player has started to look at the country of his parents. It is likely because of the upcoming World Cup (Qatar2022).<\/p>\n

Nkoudou took his time to make his decision, but others didn’t hesitate for a second. Christopher Wooh is an example of this. Trained in Nancy, the RC Lens rookie met the president of F\u00e9cafoot recently. Samuel Eto’o met with the 20-year old defender and agreed to a selection with Cameroon after only one meeting.<\/p>\n

Olivier Kemen, Kayserispor) was also not asked. The Bleuets U19 captain, who passed through Lyon, Newcastle, and then waited patiently for his chance. Everything points to him being on Rigobert Song\u2019s final list. Like Oumar Gonzalez (24). His chances are also good for AC Ajaccio’s player.<\/p>\n

Ekitike and Mbeumo absent<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Two young French internationals from Cameroon are missing. Hugo Ekitike and Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford), are the missing. The first city has displayed its desire to sport the colors of a Cameroon since qualifying for the 2022 World Cup. He was seen in France recently with Samuel Eto’o. The 19-year-old striker has been announced in Cameroon with insistence. It won’t be announced for FIFA Day, which will take place from May 30 to June 14.<\/p>\n

Rigobert Song, who is betting on stability, will take up the same position as during the March rally. Franck Etouga is the young striker at Asante Kotoko.<\/p>\n
