At this rate, we will see him play against Arsenal before we see the announcement.
 
I’m currently eating at Red cafe at OT and my son just bought the GK Kit so we are waiting to get Onana printed on it but just don’t want to assume he will be no 24 as he may take no 1???
 
What has this got to do with Onana apart from the tangential reference to Cameroon?

The reason he "retired" is allegedly due to conflicts with Eto'o and Song. Now if one or both are out of the federation then there are next to no reason for the NT to not select Onana and it's important to keep in mind that professional players cannot retire from international football.

Maybe do number later?

Don't know which he will take,was convinced Mount would take 19 so Varane finally got his 4 but didn't happen

Let's worry about it at later date
 
So instead of any funny meme's or moments that play on him announcing his own move, we're just going to have him come out at the first US press conference with ETH aren't we?
 
Can we change the thread title to something more factual? like Andre Onana | Andre Onana : "I announced myself".
 
What does that mean exactly? Varane retired from international football, or do you mean to say that he can still be called back for international duty?

They can all be called back and they all have to report back if it was the case. Varane could be called back but the FFF "granted" him his retirement, he won't be called back unless he asks, those retirements are gentlemen's agreements.

They can just refuse and there is nothing the national FA can do about it.

Thanks, I kinda assumed what you explained is what you meant but I wasn't sure, I remember seeing somewhere players were allowed to retire from international duty if they played a certain number of games which meant that they could not be called for international duty unless they agreed to it, but I'm probably wrong

I hope Niall is getting royalties for that

Doesnt apply in England, is that a Cameroon law?

First time I hear about this, is this country specific? Because players were refusing call ups left and right all the time. Especially I know this for my nation.
