Fortuna Mfou say no — this time

The offer from Victoria United for Marc Tsala Ndi was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Franck Assiga Edoa is a medical away from Fortuna Mfou

The deal with Canon Yaounde is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Match9 Jan 2027

No end in sight to Fortuna Mfou's wait for a win

4 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Fortuna Mfou has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad11 Jan 2027

The step up is real for Ari Tiente

At 20 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Tempers go at Fortuna Mfou

Bertrand Essiane Ndjongolo was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Time is catching up with Aminou Bouba

Everybody at Fortuna Mfou saw it before anybody said it, which is how this always goes. At 36 the decline is real and measurable — 3 points — and the only question left is how the club handles somebody it owes a great deal to.

Serge Eloundou signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Serge Eloundou and Fortuna Mfou agree another 4 years.

Door shut on Pierre Ikong

Fortuna Mfou asked and Dynamo Douala said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

One of those days for Sebastian Arnaud

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.02, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Market31 Aug 2026

FC Diarra come back empty-handed

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

Market31 Aug 2026

Marc Tsala Ndi is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Fortuna Mfou is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

The paperwork begins on Ambroise Sanchez Owoundi

A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Fortuna Mfou have done the hard part with Fauve Azur Elite, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Kenya Police tell Fortuna Mfou: Khadime N'Diaye is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Squad31 Aug 2026

A row about effort at Fortuna Mfou

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Raphaël Anaba was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Fortuna Mfou

Gérard Zanga and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad31 Aug 2026

No place for George Alalabang in the new shape

He is not being dropped. There is simply nowhere in the formation Fortuna Mfou are playing to put a man who does what he does, which is a harder thing to be told than any team sheet.

The dugout31 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Ari Tiente

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Ari Tiente, and the manager let it.

Squad31 Aug 2026

A season on the outside for Zaharaddeen Bello

He trains hard, says the right things and goes home to an empty flat. Nobody at Fortuna Mfou has done anything wrong, which is exactly what makes it so difficult to fix.
