Tensions between Samuel Eto’o and Alexandre Song have resurfaced, and it appears that spending vacation together is not on the horizon for the two players. The strained relationship stems from Song’s belief that he was excluded from the selection for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa due to Eto’o’s influence. Additionally, Eto’o is said to have criticized Song for attempting to “steal” the captaincy of the Indomitable Lions.
Although there were initial thoughts that the two players had reconciled, Eto’o recently stated, “There is no conflict between two stars because I am one of the best players in the world, and Song is not even one of the best players in Cameroon…” This statement highlights the ongoing tension and suggests that the rift between the two footballers remains unresolved.
