Cameroon Recovers AFCON Golden Boot Holder For Super Eagles

Aboubakar was initially ruled out of the tournament with a thigh injury, and he missed all of Cameroon’s Africa Cup Nation group phase matches.

The veteran forward returned to training on Wednesday and could be available for Saturday’s clash with Nigeria.

Aboubakar was the star of the last edition, winning the golden boot with eight goals as the Indomitable Lions took home bronze medal.

Rigobert Song’s side booked the Round of 16 date with eternal rivals, Nigeria after finishing second in Group C.

Winner of the clash will face either Angola or Namibia in the quarter-final.
