Belgian Marc Brys has been appointed as Cameroon’s national team coach.
The country’s sports ministry announced the appointment of Brys on Tuesday, replacing Rigobert Song.
The 61-year-old has coached 15 clubs in his career, in Belgium, the Netherlands, and Saudi Arabia.

Brys’ assistant coach will be former Cameroon forward Francois Omam-Biyik, who scored 26 international goals between 1985 and 1998.
He takes over a team who were dumped out of the recent Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) by Nigeria in the last 16.
Cameroon are currently top of Group D of Africa qualifying for the 2026 World Cup, following a win over Mauritius and an away draw with Libya.
Song’s contract was not renewed by Cameroonian Football Federation president Samuel Eto’o after the AFCON exit.
