The Indomitable Lions of Cameroon are now fully settled in Agadir, and the echoes from the den are growing louder as preparations intensify ahead of the TotalEnergies Africa Cup of Nations 2025.
This Sunday, Cameroon fielded a full-strength squad for an open training session at Anza Stadium, conducted under the watchful eyes of television cameras and accredited members of the press. It was a clear signal that the Lions are stepping confidently into match-ready mode.
For the first 15 minutes, journalists were granted privileged access to observe the team’s collective movements, orchestrated by head coach David Pagou. Particular attention was drawn to Christian Kofane, the youngest member of the squad, who arrived in the early hours of December 21 and is now fully integrated into the group.
After the media window closed, the session continued for over an hour, with the technical staff placing strong emphasis on play in motion, both in offensive build-up and defensive organization. The intensity reflected a squad sharpening its understanding, timing, and balance as competition draws near.
Looking ahead, the Lions will shift gears on Monday with an indoor training session, allowing the technical staff to fine-tune tactical details away from the spotlight. The focus is already firmly on December 24, when Cameroon faces Gabon’s Panthers in a highly anticipated derby clash.
The team is expected at the training site at 6 p.m. local time, the same time as in Cameroon—an encounter that promises intensity, pride, and regional rivalry.
As the countdown continues in Agadir, the message from the den remains strong and unified:
