Andre Onana's career with Cameroon has come to an end. The Inter Milan goalkeeper has announced that he will not play for his national team again after being excluded from the 2022 World Cup in Qatar due to disagreements with Rigobert Song.

Inter Milan goalkeeper Andre Onana left the World Cup in Qatar because of disagreements with coach Rigobert Song. The goalie has announced in a message posted on his Twitter account that he will not play for his national team again.

"It all started in Ngol Nkok, a small village where, from a young age, my family passed on to me the values that identify the Cameroonian people. I understood that love for this country is eternal and that commitment is non-negotiable.

"I remember how we watch matches as a family. Only Cameroonians can understand what it means to us to see the 'Indomitable Lions' play. That's when I started dreaming of one day wearing the national team jersey. And now, after endless hours of training, endless trips and a lot of perseverance, I can proudly say that I have fulfilled my great dream.

"But every story, however beautiful it may be, has its end. And my story with the Cameroonian national team has come to an end. Players come and go, names are fleeting, but Cameroon comes before any person or player. Cameroon remains eternal and so does my love for the national team and for our people who have always supported us no matter how difficult the moment was.

"My feeling will never change. My Cameroonian heart will continue to beat and wherever I go I will always fight to lift the flag of Cameroon as high as possible. I will continue to support as a fan, just as the more than 27 million Cameroonians do at every match. I can only thank all those who trusted me and believed that I could add and contribute to this team," he concluded.
