Cameroon recall Andre Onana for AFCON qualifier

YAOUNDE: Cameroon head coach Rigobert Song made an unexpected decision to recall goal-keeper Andre Onana for the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier against Burundi.

The 27-year-old Manchester United player had previously announced his retirement from international football last year after being dropped from the World Cup roster due to a disagreement with coach Song.

“There was never any problem. I think that today if he (Andre Onana) is in the list it is because he has done what was expected of him and today I think that he is one of the best goalkeepers,” Song stated during a press conference in Yaounde, unveiling the Indomitable Lions’ 24-man squad.

Cameroon needs only to draw in their match against Burundi on home ground on September 12 to qualify for AFCON. Agencies
