The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has suspended and fined Samuel Eto'o, the former Cameroonian football star and current president of the Cameroon Football Federation (FECAFOOT), for his behavior during the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. Eto'o was accused of angrily reacting to a referee's decision during Cameroon's quarter-final match, breaching fair play principles.

The suspension includes a ban from four matches and a financial fine. FECAFOOT expressed dissatisfaction with the decision, hinting at a possible appeal, claiming Eto'o's actions were misinterpreted.

This incident adds to the controversies surrounding Eto'o's leadership in Cameroonian football.
