AFCON 2023: Adebayor slams Onana for snubbing Cameroon and losing fans’ hearts

Date:

Former Arsenal and Manchester City striker, Emmanuel Adebayor has blasted Manchester United goalkeeper, Andre Onana for his late arrival to the Cameroon squad for the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON). Adebayor accused Onana of disrespecting his country, alienating his teammates, and losing the support of many African fans.

Speaking about the development, Adebayor told Sport News Africa: ” He [Andre Onana] did not respect Cameroon.

“I was a player like him, and even being the most important player in my selection, I never acted in this way [arriving on the day of the match].

“The fact that this situation is happening shows that there is a problem, perhaps even within the federation.

“He risks losing big, because he has alienated the Cameroonian supporters, as well as many African supporters and undoubtedly certain members of the team.”
