Indomitable Lions Crisis: FIFA refuses to acknowledge Marc Brys 0
The crises rocking Cameroon football has reached another height after the World football governing body refused to acknowledge the newly appointed Marc Brys as the coach of the Indomitable Lions, BSNSports.com.ng reports.
The Belgian gaffer was appointed by the Sport minister Narcisse Mouelle Kombi last month but the President of FECAFOOT Samuel Eto’o has refused to recognised him as the coach of the team.
After having mentioned the name of the coach in the Cameroon selection sheet, the governing body of football strangely retracted the name and left the coach’s box empty.
The ball is now in the court of the president of FECAFOOT who will validate the appointment of Brys to put an end to all this chaos.
The Indomitable Lions will play important matches next June against Cape Verde and Angola in the FIFA 2026 World Cup qualifier.

“His Majesty is greatly encouraged to be resuming some public-facing duties and very grateful to his medical team for their continued care and expertise,” the palace said in a statement.
Charles’ return will relieve pressure on other members of the royal family after the king’s absence, coupled with that of the Princess of Wales, also due to illness, highlighted the challenges faced by a slimmed down monarchy.
Amid the king’s commitment to cut costs and the decision of Duke and Duchess of Sussex – more commonly known as Prince Harry and Meghan – to walk away from royal duties, there are simply fewer family members available to carry out the endless round of ribbon cuttings, awards ceremonies and state events that make up the life of a modern royal
