Samuel Eto’o reacts to the signing of the new partnership with MTN Cameroon

The President of the Cameroon Football Federation (FECAFOOT), Samuel Eto’o, spoke with emotion and enthusiasm on the occasion of the official announcement of a new partnership with MTN Cameroon, a key player in the development of football local. In a speech that was both sincere and inspiring, the former captain of the Indomitable Lions underlined the importance of this collaboration for the future of Cameroonian football.

“We arrived here with a project that you embraced, that you accepted,” said Eto’o, hailing the crucial role of MTN Cameroon in supporting FECAFOOT’s ambitions. He compared the relationship to a marriage, acknowledging the inevitable challenges, but emphasizing the ability to forgive and focus on common goals: “As in any good marriage, nothing is perfect. However, the woman always knows how to forgive and look at the common goal that we have. »

The president of FECAFOOT also took the time to thank MTN Cameroon for its renewed trust and continued commitment to the federation and stakeholders in Cameroonian football. This partnership is part of a dynamic aimed at bringing stadiums back to life, improving player conditions and promoting more professional football management.

Samuel Eto’o recalled his dream of seeing Cameroonian stadiums full of enthusiastic supporters again, a goal that he links to better remuneration and player development. “Long before me, I saw full stadiums, and my dream today is to see crowded stadiums and paid players again. » While acknowledging that some challenges persist, he expressed satisfaction with the progress made and the growing support from club presidents, often without the need for sanctions.

“That means that we still started from zero to achieve something,” concluded Eto’o, optimistic about the evolution of Cameroonian football.

This new partnership between FECAFOOT and MTN Cameroon is seen as a major step in the restructuring of football in the land of the Indomitable Lions, a further step towards the realization of Eto’o’s vision: a Cameroonian football radiant at the local level and international.
