Afcon 2019: Clarence Seedorf’s Cameroon separation was inevitable from the start

The Indomitable Lions coach has been relieved of his duties after an underwhelming Afcon campaign

Clarence Seedorf’s tenure as Cameroon coach is over; just short of a year after he was appointed, and following a disappointing Africa Cup of Nations campaign, the Dutch great has been relieved of his duties.

He’s proving to be yet further proof that a stellar playing career doesn’t readily translate to success in the dugout, with the former Real Madrid and AC Milan player having failed to last over a year in any of his four managerial appointments to date.
