Cameroon’s national football team, the Indomitable Lions, have announced their 24-man squad for the upcoming FIFA 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Mauritius and Libya. The team will face Mauritius on November 17th in Douala, and then travel to Benghazi to play against Libya on November 21st.
Head coach Rigobert Song presented the squad to the public on November 7th in Yaounde. Among the players selected, three new faces have been included in the team.
Leon Bell Bell, a 27-year-old defender who plays for German club FC Magdeburg, has been called up to support the defense line.
Another newcomer is Faris Pemi Moumbagna, a Cameroonian player who currently plays for FK Bodo Glimt in the Norwegian top division.
Equally, coach Rigobert Song has chosen Junior Baptist Tchamadeu, who is making waves in English club Stoke City as a full-back player. The squad also sees the return of two players, Yvan Neyou and Georges Kevin Nkoudou. Both players had not been called up to the national team for a while, but their recent performances have earned them a spot in the squad.
Coach Rigobert Song has expressed his desire to build a competitive team and believes that these players can contribute to the team’s success.
As the Indomitable Lions gear up for these crucial qualification games, fans are hopeful that the team will achieve positive results and secure their place in the FIFA 2026 World Cup.
