Allan Nyom: 'No regrets' about missing Cameroon's African Nations Cup win

Cameroon international defender Allan Nyon has told the BBC he doesn't have "any regrets" about missing the African Nations Cup in order to remain with West Bromwich Albion in the Premier League club.

Nyom, 28, told Cameroon he was not willing to play in the tournament but changed his mind only for coach Hugo Broos to tell him there was no longer a place in the squad available.

However, Nyom, who helped West Brom pick up seven points from a possible nine available instead, said: "Let him know that I don't have any regrets."

Following Cameroon's 2-1 victory against Egypt in the final, Broos claimed absentees such as Nyom and Liverpool defender Joel Matip would question their decision to miss out.
