The Nathan Douala affair has triggered a major earthquake in Cameroon soccer in recent hours. FECAFOOT spokesman Ernest Obama was asked by L'Equipe about the reasons why these players would falsify their age.
"The decision by European clubs not to take players over the age of 23 to Africa is the primary cause of this situation. If a player isn't detected early because there are no youth leagues, he arrives in the First Division at 24, 25, 26...It's already too late for him. The other case is that of a player playing in the regions at 23 or 24, by the time he reaches the First Division, he'll be 28 or 30. So, he cuts back from 23 to 17, to be able to enter the circuit and give himself a chance of being detected at 20 or 21 " explains Ernest Obama.
