Clarence Seedorf Says His Squad Is Open To Everyone

Clarence Seedorf, the coach of Cameroon said his squad is open to any player regardless of where they would play. He made this comment when Benjamin Moukandjo took retirement from his international football. As soon as Moukandjo retired, Seedorf added Christian Bassagog in the list of latest games to be played against Malawi. Seedorf explained saying they follow every player and see a lot of potentials there. They try to get the best players for his club as per Seedorf. They are not the best only in terms of skills but also are motivated and understand the depth of playing for the nation. Each and every player should be happy and play for Cameroon with pride said, Seedorf.

The latest matches are considered as 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers however not in the case of Indomitable Lions as they have been qualified as hosts automatically. Seedorf had drawn his first match with 1-1 last month with Comoros and has already done all it takes to build a team for the finals next year. There are some players who may be thinking that they can still give it some time until the 2019 AFCON but Seedorf won’t let that happen. He wants to build a strong and title-winning side and hence he said that the team is open to everyone. In addition, he also said he is talking with Joel Matip, the Liverpool defender on returning to the Indomitable Lions.

Seedorf Will Be On The Right Track With Cameroon

Clarence Seedorf was appointed by Cameroon in 4th August and it seems like a decision taken majorly by status and not by on-field factors. The 42-year-old did enjoy the football career that most of his peers envied about. He won 4 Champions League titles in addition to 5 major leagues. Many people talked about his lack of experience in the African game could make it a risky choice as Cameroon’s coach. Without Arnaud Djoum and Sebastien Siani, two of many high profile champions cut from the team. Choupo Moting did catch the eye in the forward line and Karl Toko Ekambi battled in replacement for Vincent Aboubakar who was injured. Ekambi has 3 goals in previous 4 seasons for FC Porto.

The team selections have also raised many questions as Seedorf redeemed his previous mistake to begin Gaetan Bong before Ambroise Oyongo by bringing the latter later on. It was Oyongo from Montpellier who ultimately offered assistance for the equalizer of Bahoken, while Bong did tolerate a tough time. He represented a sensitive presence during pressure and offered not much going forward. Cameroon’s performance was a reminder of how the coach should have made efforts to recall some of the best stars of the squad. Ultimately, Seedorf was impressed with the way things turned out and shared his views.
