Clarence Seedorf, the ex Dutch international midfielder has been appointed as Cameroon’s new coach in addition to Patrick Kluivert, who would assist Seedorf who has already been his teammate before. Pierre Ismael Bidoung Mkpatt, the Minister of Sport & Education of Cameroon made the announcement in a news conference. There were talks about Sven-Goran Eriksson; the ex-England manager could not get to an agreement.
Seedorf is all set to take over from Hugo Broos, the Belgian who was leading the side for a win at African Nations Cup finals in 2017. However, he failed to achieve victory during the World Cup in Russia. Since then, Alexandre Belinga is the caretaker coach. The Nations Cup title will be defended by Cameroon in their home soil next year, which would be the debut major final test for the new team.
