André Onana leaves Cameroon, the Inter goalkeeper decided to end his adventure with the national team prematurely and officially communicated it through his social accounts. At just 26 years old and just 34 games behind him, his relationship with the Cameroon national team ends like this: the last disagreement that took place at the World Cup in Qatar was fatal which led to the exclusion of the goalkeeper from the group led by coach Rigobert Song.
Thus, a few days after his return to Inter’s headquarters, André Onana returned to talk about his relationship with the Cameroonian national team, which became complicated after the last disagreement that occurred during the World Cup. Summoned by coach Song to the squad of the 26 that make up the expedition to the world cup, Onana is in the starting line-up in the first round of the group stage (lost 1-0 against Switzerland). Then, due to technical differences with the same coach within the group, he was dropped from the team, being replaced by Devis Epassy who will play the remaining two games of Group G.
Behind the tears, the truth of what happened only came to light later: on the last November 28th, he was suddenly excluded due to alleged tactical differences until suspension for disciplinary reasons. Finally, the day after the decision to leave Qatar definitively and immediately: “I’ve always performed well to lead the team to success in the best way. I put all my effort and energy into trying to find a solution. this type of situation that often happens to a football player” he will then write on his social profiles “but there was no will on the other side.”
Then, silence. Since the beginning of December Onana has regularly resumed your place at Inter where preparations were resumed in view of the resumption of the championship scheduled for January 4th. Nothing to add about what happened in Qatar until Friday, December 23, almost a month later, with the 26-year-old goalkeeper officially ending his adventure with Cameroon: “It all started in a small town and when I was very small and with my parents who taught me the values of the Cameroonian people” he wrote on social media in an emotional farewell post, written in two languages, French and English, so everyone can understand. 🇧🇷I understood that the love for this country is eternal and non-negotiable. I remember when we used to watch the games with my family and that’s when I started dreaming of wearing the national team shirt”
🇧🇷Unfortunately every story, no matter how beautiful it is, has an end. And mine with the Cameroon national team came to an end🇧🇷 then added Onana, who arrived at the national team in 2015 and with whom he participated in the 2018 Confederations Cup, in Russia, and in two editions of the Africa Cup (2019 and 2021) as a starter. 🇧🇷Players come and go, but Cameroon is more than people. My heart remains Cameroonian and wherever I go I will keep the Cameroonian flag high. I will continue to be a fan like the more than 27 million Cameroonians at every game. Thanks to everyone who believed in me. The nation, first and always”.
