According to Cameroon’s Sports Ministry, the country appointed Belgian Marc Brys as the new head coach of its men's football team on Tuesday.

This follows news in February that former coach Rigobert Song's contract would not be renewed.

The statement said Joachim Mununga and Giannis Xilouris would assist Brys. It also named new technical, medical, and administrative staff.

Song's contract, agreed in March 2022, came to an end on February 29.

He led the Indomitable Lions to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where they beat Brazil but went out in the group stage.

At the recent Africa Cup of Nations finals in Ivory Coast, he could only guide the side to the last 16, where they were beaten by eventual finalists Nigeria.
