2006 Nations Cup: Lions Called to Camp (28.10.2005)
Two training camps, the first to detect talents and the second to culminate in a friendly, will be organised in Paris from November 06 to 16, 2005.
The Indomitable Lions of Cameroon would on November 06, 2005, begin preparing for the 25th African Cup of Nations to take place in Egypt from January 20 to February 10, 2005. The administrative unit of the National football team yesterday published a programme of two separate training camps which will culminate with a friendly match with an African team on November 16 in Paris.
The first training camp would take place from November 06 to 10, 2005 at Centre Leonard de Vinci, Paris. Some 29 professionals, playing in Europe, Middle East, Russia, etc,
would be part of the camp that would essentially seek to fish out new talents for the national football team. Most of those invited would be putting on the national colours for the first time or have played sparingly for the national football team.
The second training camp would also take place at Centre Leonard de Vinci. It will run from November 11 to 16, 2005 and would essentially seek to prepare for the African Cup of Nations. 17 players, all regulars of the national football team, have been invited for the training camp which will end with a friendly match against an African team on November 16 in Paris. Some 20 players would be part of the squad that would face the African team that is still to be identified.
