Yaoundé: The Cameroon Football Federation has terminated its contract with national football team coach Rigobert Song. The Federation gave the above information on Wednesday.
Federation general secretary Blaise Djounang thanked Song and his assistants for their dedication to serving the nation in an official statement, without giving any reason for terminating their contracts.
“In the next few days, details of the recruitment process for a new Indomitable Lions coaching staff will be announced,” Djounang said.
The former Cameroon football star and captain, who has been in charge of the national team since 2022, helped the team qualify for the FIFA World Cup in Qatar shortly after his appointment.
However, according to local football analysts, his two-year tenure has been less impressive, with the team winning only six out of 23 matches under his coaching.
