Eto`o in Lions` squad for Japan (19.08.2007)
The stand-in Cameroon coach Jules Nyongha has named Samuel Eto`o in his squad for a friendly with Japan next week - despite the Barcelona star asking to be rested for the trip.
Eto`o made the plea because he`s just returned from Barca`s own tour of Asia, and didn`t want to fly back to the Far East.
The Spanish League season starts on the 26th August, just a few days after the game.
But its understood that the decision has been made with the player`s agreement.
The match is due to be played in Oita in Japan on the 22nd of August, whilst Barcelona kick off in the Primera Liga the following Sunday.
Nyongha has made two last minute changes to his 18 man squad - including the goalkeeper Gilbert Bayiha to
replace the injured Idriss Kameni, and Landry Nguemo, who takes the place of Geremi Njitap.
The new Newcastle United captain misses the trip because of apparent administrative problems.
Nguemo`s absence from the original squad was a surprise given his excellent form since making his debut in September last year.
The squad will arrive in Japan in two separate groups - and will have just one training session before the match.
The game is likely to be Nyongha`s last in charge of the Indomitable Lions - despite his achievement in steering them to Nations Cup qualification.
The Cameroon Football Federation (Fecafoot) has said 78 coaches have applied for the role vacated by Arie Haan earlier this year.
