Moumi Ngamaleu replaces Francois-Regis Mughe in Cameroon AFCON squad

YAOUNDE: Dynamo Moscow winger Moumi Ngamaleu was called up to Cameroon’s national team on Thursday by coach Rigobert Song ahead of the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) which opens in Cote d’Ivoire next week. Ngamaleu replaces Francois-Regis Mughe, who declined to participate in AFCON in order to prioritize playing for his club Marseille, reported Xinhua.

Ngamaleu, 29, was part of the Cameroon squad that reached the 2021 AFCON semifinal on home soil before being eliminated by Egypt.

Cameroon will open the 34th edition of the biennial football tournament against Guinea on January 15 at the Charles Konan Banny Stadium in Yamoussoukro. IANS
