Former Arsenal striker Emmanuel Adebayor has blasted Cameroon goalkeeper Andre Onana for having no respect for his country.
The ex-Arsenal striker believes Onana "alienated" himself from his international teammates and African supporters at AFCON.
The criticism comes in the wake of Onana's late arrival, causing him to watch Cameroon's 1-1 draw with Guinea from the sidelines.
Speaking about the development, Adebayor told Sport News Africa:
”He [Andre Onana] did not respect Cameroon.
“I was a player like him, and even being the most important player in my selection, I never acted in this way [arriving on the day of the match].
“The fact that this situation is happening shows that there is a problem, perhaps even within the federation.
“He risks losing big, because he has alienated the Cameroonian supporters, as well as many African supporters and undoubtedly certain members of the team.”

You guys are just accusing Onana as if you don't know anything about football, were you not aware that he was already retired from international duty when Man United sign him? Or you don't read football news at all? Besides United and Cameroon agreed that Onana will be joining them after the Tottenham match. And this guy left united immediately after the match just because of the bad weather his private jet couldn't land where it's supposed to, Onana have go extra 150miles before he could get to the venue, what else do you all want him to do? To kill himself for the same country that Eto'o tried to ruin his career when he was at inter Milan.... You're all bunch of hypocrites.

Lets be honest people, Onana retired from international football and Cameron begged him to come back. At the same time his career at Man United has not been smooth. If he turns his back on Cameron he will be blamed and if he turns his back on Man United his career will be affected. Will Cameroon pick him if he is not playing for Man United. Why do you want to complicate Onana's already complicated life.

it's a pity for African football. He decided to retire from international football was ok, nobody forced him back, but when your back to the squad, you have to respect the team. Adebayo was right.

you are very stupid are you trying to say what Onana has done is the ryt thing? which there a lot of important players who leave their teams and come to the afcon so who the hell is onana not to come on time, saying that he will wait for their match against Tottenham while his teammates have already returned should it be like that?
