The Indomitable Lionesses of Cameroon have announced a formidable 25-player squad as they gear up for a high-profile international friendly double-header against Nigeria’s Super Falcons.
The Cameroonian Football Federation released the list as preparations gathered pace in Mundi, where the team has opened camp ahead of the much-anticipated encounters.
The technical crew has opted for a balanced selection, drawing largely from the domestic Cameroon Women’s Championship while also inviting several foreign-based professionals to reinforce the squad.
The combination of homegrown stars and experienced players plying their trade abroad highlights Cameroon’s determination to approach the fixtures with utmost seriousness.
Team officials believe the blend will provide the right mix of cohesion, competitiveness and tactical flexibility needed against a formidable Nigerian side.
The two West African rivals will face off on Saturday, February 28, before meeting again on Tuesday, March 3.
The fixtures are expected to deliver intense competition, given the long-standing rivalry between both nations in women’s football.
For Cameroon, the friendlies serve as a crucial part of their preparations for the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations.
The Lionesses have been drawn in Group D alongside Ghana, Cape Verde and Mali, a pool widely regarded as competitive.
The coaching staff sees the upcoming clashes against Nigeria as an opportunity to test tactical variations, evaluate squad depth and strengthen team chemistry ahead of the continental tournament.
Facing the nine-time African champions provides a significant benchmark as the Lionesses aim to fine-tune their strategy and boost confidence before the 2026 campaign.
With both teams expected to parade strong line-ups, the double-header promises to be a thrilling contest and a valuable dress rehearsal ahead of Africa’s biggest women’s football showpiece.
