Roc Nation Sports International expands football recruitment operations in Cameroon

Roc Nation Sports International (RNSI) has formally announced a strategic expansion in Cameroon as it seeks to strengthen the identification, recruitment and management of leading football talent across Africa.

The announcement was made on 12 November 2026, during the Danny Namaso tournament, which is being held from 10 to 14 November 2026. RNSI representatives are attending the event to assess some of the continent’s most promising players.

The agency has already established a presence in the region through its representation of Danny Namaso, the tournament’s namesake, and Geovanni Vianney, a young player whose career is progressing rapidly.

Romel Ghomsi appointed Cameroon recruitment lead

RNSI has appointed Romel Ghomsi as a dedicated consultant responsible for leading its recruitment activities in Cameroon.

Ghomsi brings extensive knowledge of regional football, a broad network and significant experience in the game. His role will be to accelerate the growth of RNSI’s talent portfolio in Cameroon over the coming years.

He will also oversee the agency’s scouting operation throughout the Danny Namaso tournament.

Nathan Campbell, Roc Nation Sports International’s global head of recruitment and the agent of several prominent African players, including Yan Diomande, has underlined the strategic importance of the African market.

Grant Veitch, RNSI’s director of African football recruitment, has also reaffirmed the continent’s importance to the agency in an exclusive interview with Africafoot.

Ghomsi said he was pleased to be joining RNSI at what he considers a particularly promising stage for the development of young Cameroonian players. He outlined his ambitions for the new role in an interview with Africafoot.

RNSI plans closer work with Kadji Sports Academy

The agency also intends to strengthen its partnership with Kadji Sports Academy (KSA), a leading institution in the development of young footballers.

Based in Douala, the academy has helped develop talents including Samuel Eto’o and Geovanni Vianney, who is also represented by RNSI.

RNSI plans to continue supporting KSA’s youth-development work and to work closely with its leadership to create more opportunities for the academy’s players to enter international football networks.

Olliver Kadji, vice-president of Kadji Sports Academy, welcomed the strengthening of the relationship between the two organisations.

Through its expansion in Cameroon, Roc Nation Sports International aims to enhance its scouting and support structure for African footballers. Its approach will focus on recruiting locally, with Ghomsi leading the work on the ground, while developing strategic partnerships such as the one with Kadji Sports Academy.
