Andre Onana retires from international football at 26 after being sent home from Cameroon

Andre Onana has announced his retirement from international football after being removed from Cameroon’s World Cup squad last month.

The Inter Milan star, 26, was sent home from the tournament in Qatar following a blazing row with manager Rigobert Song, who reportedly took issue with his goalkeeping style.

Song clashed with Inter Milan shot-stopper during training for taking too many risks with his feet, sparking a shouting match between the pair. Leaked footage later showed the head coach explaining what was said during the dispute.

He claimed his goalkeeper became tearful after approaching him to discuss his displays and that he avoided speaking to him.

Onana has now made the decision to step down from international duty altogether, confirming his Cameroon retirement in a lengthy post on social media.
