Legend FW Etu's Ugly Side

Cameroon hero Samuel Etu, who earned the reputation of Africa's best player ever based on his world-class killer ability as a player, is causing various problems after retirement.

British media "Daily Mail" paid attention to various illegal activities that have been accused of, saying, "Etu is the one who led the departure of Andre Onana, a member of Manchester United, as the Cameroon national team's leading goalkeeper." Onana is scheduled to play as a goalkeeper for the Cameroon national team in the Nations Cup, a national competition organized by the African Football Federation (CAF), in January.

Onana suffered a defeat in her first group match against Switzerland as Cameroon's goalkeeper at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. According to the media, the national team coach at the time, Rigobert Song, pointed to Onana's dangerous style of play as the loser. "Song and Onana had a serious argument after the match against Switzerland, which caused Onana to be suspended from the second match against Serbia," the Daily Mail said.

Here, Etu appeared, making the situation even more serious.

At that time, Etu was a person who could seal the conflict between Song and Onana and overcome the situation, but he did not do so. The Cameroonian Football Association president, Etu, banned Onana from accompanying the national team and ordered her to stay away from the hotel. The Cameroonian Football Association said in a statement, "Onana will be suspended due to violation of rules and will leave the national team during the World Cup."

The Cameroon government tried to deal with the excessive punishment, but Onana immediately left the national team and even announced her retirement from the national team in December the following month.

Henry Niala Kwan, who served as an advisor to the Cameroon Football Association in the past due to Etu's incompetence, even exposed Etu's illegal activities so far, saying in July, "Etu is trying to destroy Onana's career."

At the time, Niala said, "Etu threatened my family. He threatened me that he would keep my feet peeled until I die," and reportedly told a soccer official that Etu also handed over 1,300 euros worth of bribes. Furthermore, Etu reportedly abused his power to promote Cameroon's second-division team, where Etu's friend plays, to the first division, adjusting the schedule of matches and manipulating matches. Currently, Etu denies all these revelations.

Amid a flurry of controversies over the Cameroon Football Association and an unstable atmosphere, Onana eventually successfully sealed her conflict with Song and rejoined the national team in September, nine months after her retirement announcement.

However, Etu and Onana have not talked for more than a year since the last World Cup and are engaged in a "Cold War" by ignoring each other when they inevitably meet. Concerns have been raised that the discord with Etu could hit the Cameroon national team again.

The Daily Mail said, "Etu is angry because he thinks Onana has challenged his authority. Song, who played with Etu as a national team teammate in the past, has become uncomfortable between the two." In addition, he said, "Song is likely to be on the side of Etu, who was the president and teammate of the Cameroon Football Association." In other words, if Onana makes a disagreement with Song once again, he could be kicked out again.

Amid Onana's unstable position in the national team, his team Manchester United is also expected to suffer from a headache as the main goalkeeper is away. The media said, "The team's backup goalkeeper Altai Vindr will play as a substitute for Onana."
