He was relieved of his duties following a letter addressed to him on February 28 by the Minister of Sports and Physical Education, Prof. Narcisse Mouelle Kombi.

According to Prof. Mouelle Kombi, the employment contract No. 2022-025/MINSEP/CAB, concluded on March 23, 2022, between the different parties, expires on February 29, 2024, in accordance with its Article 6, paragraph 1.

The Minister states that it will not be possible for the State, provider of remuneration (salary and other benefits), to reappoint him as the Coach of the Cameroon senior men’s national team. He has been relieved from his duties alongside the technical staff.

Criticism of Song’s performance during his two-year tenure has been significant. In 23 matches under his leadership, the team achieved six victories, suffered nine defeats, and settled for eight draws. Consequently, recruitment procedures for a new coach are set to begin in the upcoming days.
