Cameroon: Alleged resignation, Marc Brys speaks out in a video | OneFootball

Marc Brys

Cameroon made headlines again this Wednesday, July 23. While FECAFOOT announced the resignation of head coach Marc Brys, the man himself sent a letter to deny the claim. The Belgian tactician has once again addressed the situation in a video statement.

It was an unprecedented and completely surreal situation this Wednesday. Cameroon once again found itself at the center of controversy. FECAFOOT released a statement claiming that coach Marc Brys had decided to step down, even publishing the letter allegedly sent by the Belgian manager.

Hours later, Marc Brys responded with a statement, firmly denying that he had resigned. The coach could only accuse FECAFOOT of fabricating the letter out of thin air. Locked in a dispute with the federation led by Samuel Eto'o since his appointment, Brys once again addressed the media in a video message.

"I was surprised by what was published. I have not resigned. I don't see why I would do so. There is no need for it. I live in Greece, so I couldn't have signed that letter. Once again, I am still the coach of Cameroon. We're focused on the future and on the World Cup qualifiers. We want to prepare well and provide the best conditions for the players. We've qualified for AFCON, and we have a lot of work ahead. I hope the fans will support us for these two major events. Thank you for focusing on Cameroonian football. We will do our best," said the Belgian coach.
