CAMEROON – FOOTBALL: FECAFOOT SACKS MARC BRYS.

0

The Cameroon Football Federation (FECAFOOT) has dismissed head coach Marc Brys and appointed an interim coaching staff to lead the Indomitable Lions, ahead of their upcoming matches against Cape Verde and Angola, come June 2024, in Yaoundé and Luanda, respectively.

According to the statement signed by the FECAFOOT’s Secretary-General, Blaise Djounang, the federation has appointed Martin Ndtoungou Mpile as the interim head coach, with Pagou David as his assistant and Narcisse Tinkeu as the interim physical trainer.

The decision comes in response to Brys’ behavior during a meeting at the Fécafoot headquarters on the 28th of May, 2024. The federation cited several reasons for the dismissal, including:

– Brys’ refusal to attend the first training session organized by the Secretary-General on May 10, 2024.

– Refusal to communicate about his training program.

– The publication of the player list and the organization of a press conference, which violated FECAFOOT’s procedures.

– Taking independent initiatives and disclosing player information to third parties and the media without Fécafoot’s prior approval.

The communique reads thus, amongst other reasons.

It is worth recalling, the Belgian Marc BRYS and his staff were in April this year, nominated by the Ministry of Sports, reportedly following instructions from the Head of States, after Rigobert Song’s contract wasn’t renewed. Nominations which were not welcomed by Federation, and set the pace for the brouhaha between both parties.

It should be noted, the two crucial games in June 2024, will count for the 3rd round of the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.

Presently, Cameroon’s Indomitable Lions are top of their group with 4 points, followed by Cape Verde and Libya with same points and Angola coming 4th with 2 points. It is hoped that the recent misunderstandings will not influence the Lions results on the pitch.
