Choupo-Moting: Email gaffe rules Bayern Munich star out of Cameroon squad

Cameroon will be without Bayern Munich star Eric Choupo-Moting when they face Cape Verde and Rwanda in March’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.

The 32-year-old striker was among the names pencilled down for the fixtures by coach Toni Conceicao, however, an administrative error has left him out.

According to German media outlet Bild, the former Paris Saint-Germain player never received any call-up as the Cameroonian Football Federation sent an invitation to the wrong email address.
