In a move that has raised eyebrows across African football, the Cameroon national football team has excluded two of its most experienced stars, André Onana and Vincent Aboubakar, from the final squad announced for the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) 2025.

According to a Fabrizio Romano post on Monday, Romano said, “André Onana and Vincent Aboubakar have been left out of the Cameroon squad for the AFCON.”

The decision marks a major shakeup for the Indomitable Lions, ahead of one of Africa’s biggest football tournaments.

The absence of Onana, a goalkeeper who has played at top European clubs, and Aboubakar, the veteran forward and long-serving captain, signals a new direction under the team’s refreshed leadership.

The squad list also reflects a broader generational shift as younger and less-established players are given the chance to stake their claim ahead of the tournament in Morocco.

Report had it that Onana completed a loan move to Turkish side Trabzonspor for the remainder of the 2025–26 season.

Manchester United legend, Wayne Rooney, has picked the Red Devils defender Luke Shaw as the most improved player in the Premier League following the conclusion of the 2025/26 season.

Speaking on his BBC podcast, Rooney said, “I think, for me, Luke Shaw. I think Luke Shaw has been the most improved player this season.

“I know he is an experienced player now, but I think his level this season has been much better than it has been in recent seasons.

“People might look at Kobbie Mainoo but I don’t think he’s improved. It was just the fact he wasn’t playing under the former manager so it wasn’t good or bad.”

Shaw enjoyed one of his most consistent seasons at Man United and started all of Man United’s Premier League games.
