Squad

Andre Ntcham damages knee ligaments — 30 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 30 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Market

Constant Sanga has said yes to Aigle Royal de Moungo

The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Panthere du Nde have lost him in all but the paperwork.

Market

Cotonsport Garoua come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Panthere du Nde did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market

Yann Mbah Ndjock hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Panthere du Nde can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Marc Onguene honoured for the season

The kind of year that ends with a name being read out in a hall. Panthere du Nde had the benefit of it every week and now have the problem of everybody else knowing.

Market

Marcel Fobang is a Panthere du Nde player

The fee is $45.0K, the contract is signed, and the argument about whether he is worth it can begin. Gazelle Garoua drove a hard bargain; time will say who won it.

Squad

A falling-out at Panthere du Nde

Mohamed Moluh Mounta and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad

Hugo Rauch gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Hugo Rauch has just signed for Panthere du Nde, and for once the answer mattered.

The terraces

The town asked, and Panthere du Nde paid $45.0K

Marcel Fobang was the name on every phone-in, and the club has gone and signed him for $45.0K. For one week the board can do no wrong, which is a week most boards never get.

In brief
