    No seemingly not, Nyom met up with the squad but wasn't in the 23 and is in the same position as Matip

    The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

      My point being that if they didn't recognise his retirement then they'd pick him right? Surely not picking him is an acknowledgement of his international status?

        Presumably they tried to pick him for the provisonal squad and he didn't go?

          New regime have clearly tried to talk him round. When that has failed they have gone in heavyhanded
          The mad thing with this is that they are burning bridges with these players and will never convince them to come out of retirement and if you were considering declaring for Cameroon this would be a big red flag.

          It just seems really vindictive.

            Just stupid PR for Cameroon, AFCON & FIFA here...LFC are a bigger brand than all of these so their sponsors will be horrified to see this going on & their own brand being associated with this in any which way!
            Nope, don't need anger management, you just need to stop pissing me off!

              My thoughts as well, Matip was born in Germany but opted for Cameroon, other players in a similar position might think twice now.

                Long term repercussions will be severe for Cameroon and ultimately AFCON.

                    Not gonna happen as they're one hour forward, so they must already be sleeping by now.
                    Are we winning?

                      They will delay a decision and then say they are investigating the issue

                      They will drag this out until the end of the tournament (or Cameroons involvement)

                      Then they will come out and say "its alright he can play now so we dont need to investigate further"

                        FIFA have two speeds depending on the size of the brown envelopes.
