André Onana was the Cameroon goalkeeper, especially for the 2022 World Cup. However, he has recently ended his career with the national team. He announced this in December 2022 after the World Cup ended. After the tournament, the 26-year-old footballer was sent home, assumedly after being in a dispute with Rigobert Song, the national team coach. The player posted on his social media about the incident. The player, who is associated with Inter Milan, stated that his association with the national team of Cameroon has ended.
However, he admitted that players who come and play for the national team keep changing but the country comes first, before any player or person. He did not elaborate on the reasons for his decision. He also stated that Cameroon stays eternal and so does his love for their national team. The last international game he played as part of the national team ended with a loss to Switzerland. This was part of the initial rounds of World Cup Qatar. After this game he did not play for the national team anymore, citing his disagreements with Song, especially over tactics that the team should deploy. In the following game, Cameroon ended with a draw of 3-3 when they played against Serbia.
Cameroon, though, were not to be denied and Toko Ekambi swept home the winner to secure an African record-extending eighth appearance at the World Cup. It capped a dream start for new manager Rigobert Song who had only been in the job a month after Antonio Conceicao was sacked following Cameroon's failure to win the Africa Cup of Nations on home soil. Cameroon had finished top of their qualifying group to set up the decider against Algeria, after winning five out of six matches and edging out Ivory Coast by two points. 
Onana has been benched for the first three Italian Serie A games this season with manager Simone Inzaghi opting to start veteran shot stopper Handanovic ahead of him. He's seen as the long-term replacement for retired Slovenian international shot stopper Handanovic. 
Onana, 26, has signed a five-year deal with the Nerazzuriuntil the end of the 2026/27 season. He's seen as the long-term successor to veteran Slovenian goalkeeper Samir Handanovicat Inter Milan. The 37-year-old Handanovic has been the first choice goalkeeper at Inter Milan for over a decade and he recently signed a one-year contract extension to take his time at the club to next summer at least. 
Kenya have been thrown out of the group thus leaving three teams to battle it out in the race to qualify for the 2023 AFCON tournament on Ivorian soil. The Kenyans have not been part of the latest round of AFCON 2023 qualifiers since it started this month. Kenya and Zimbabwe were suspended by FIFA before they were thrown outof the qualifiers when the situation was not resolved. 
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp made a lot of changes to his starting XI for the City game from the starting XI for the 3-3 draw at home to Benfica in their Champions League quarterfinal second leg clash and Cameroon international Matip was one of the players who dropped to the bench. He watched from the substitutes’ bench as Manchester City were blown away in the first 45 minutes thanks to the opening goal from Ibrahima Konate and a brace from Senegalese international Sadio Mane.
