It’s over for FECAFOOT and One All Sports: Samuel Eto’o delivers a surprise.
This marks the end of a soap opera whose outcome was almost predictable. The Cameroon Football Federation’s love relationship with One All Sports has come to an end. Indeed, the Cameroon Football Federation (FECAFOOT) has announced the termination of its contract with the equipment company One All Sports, which previously outfitted the Cameroon national football teams. This conclusion, communicated on August 6, 2024, is the end of an unclear adventure..
In its official press statement, FECAFOOT emphasized the significance of adhering to contractual obligations. Although the precise reasons for the breakup were not disclosed, the federation expressed a clear desire to end the partnership.
The Cameroonian national teams will wear One All Sports equipment for the final time during the September 2024 tournaments, marking the conclusion of a collaboration whose lifespan has yet to be determined.
FECAFOOT also stated that it intends to issue a call for tenders shortly to pick a new equipment supplier. The stated goal is to locate a partner “on par with the prestige of the Cameroon National Teams,” implying that the federation wants to improve its image and that of its national teams.
This decision comes at an important time for Cameroonian football, as the country prepares for the upcoming international competitions. As a result, fans and African football analysts will critically evaluate the new equipment supplier.
FECAFOOT did not specify a particular timeline for selecting a new equipment supplier, but did promise that the process would be completed “as soon as possible”. This swift transformation emphasizes the urgency of the situation and the emphasis that the federation places on this adjustment.
