Cameroon trio to return for Lions

Javier Clemente says the three key players could return to the side

Arsenal midfielder Alex Song is among three key players being considered for a return to Cameroon national team.

The Spain-based duo of Achille Emana and Carlos Kameni have also not been called up since the World Cup in June.

The trio have been excluded from the team since the start of the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers in September.

With their key Group E game against Senegal scheduled to be played in Dakar later this month, coach Javier Clemente insists the trio could be recalled.

“Let me tell you that no player is banned from the national team,” Clemente said.

“So Achille Emana, Alexandre Song and Carlos Kameni are likely to be part of the team that will face Senegal on 26 March.”

“We all know the importance of this match. It’s a must win for us, and we have all the chances of beating Senegal.”

Cameroon are second in Group E with four points after two matches and are two points of the leaders Senegal.
