Newly appointed Fecafoot president Samuel Eto’o stands alone as Cameroon’s greatest player, and arguably Africa’s top footballer of all time as well. After being part of the Indomitable Lions’ magnificent side of the turn of the century, he went onto enjoy immense success in Europe with Barcelona and Internazionale. He became part of an elite group of players to win the Champions League with two clubs back to back when Jose Mourinho’s Inter clinched the title in 2010—Eto’o’s third crown—while he’s also Cameroon and the Afcon’s top scorer. Goals are the currency of football, and Eto’o is a master.
