The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has officially suspended Samuel Eto’o, President of the Cameroon Football Federation, for four matches and imposed a $20,000 fine following a disciplinary breach during the AFCON quarterfinal against Morocco.
The legendary striker reportedly directed his fury toward match officials in the immediate presence of the CAF President and FIFA dignitaries, an outburst that triggered an immediate regulatory response.
This significant sanction marks a challenging chapter for the African football icon, described as “a major moment involving one of Africa’s biggest football icons now feeling the weight of leadership responsibility.”
