Cameroon Coach : Ex-Barcelona GK Rejected The Chance To Play Against Nigeria

One of the surprise names omitted from the Indomitable Lions squad that is set to travel to Nigeria for a World Cup qualifier against Nigeria this week is Ajax Amsterdam goalkeeper André Onana.

Cameroon manager Hugo Broos had to explain that he did not call up the former Barcelona youth-teamer because he refused to play for his country.

''I had an interview with André, he said that he no longer wants to be selected with the national team. He wants to concentrate on his club,'' Broos told reporters, according to camfoot.com.

''Honestly, I have a little doubt. I think the reason is elsewhere. I am really surprised at his decision'' .

Onana's cousin, Sevilla Atletico netminder Fabrice Ondoa, has been included in the squad list.
