Cameroon has announced its squad for the African Cup of Nations (AFC), and one of its "young players", Douala, has attracted a lot of discussion because he is reportedly only 17 years old, but he already has an M-size forehead, which makes him more "mature" than a lot of middle-aged men.
Immediately after the list was published, Marca made a big fuss with the headline "African Scandal": "Cameroon drafts a 17-year-old boy ...... But he doesn't see that as the case".
According to the Cameroon FA, Douala plays for domestic team Victoria United as a midfielder, with a date of birth of May 15, 2006, and is now 17 years old. Looking at his appearance, one cannot help but suspect that the information is incorrect, but the African Cup of Nations is not a youth tournament, and there is no need to report the details.
