Gabon Bans Aubameyang, Suspends National Team After AFCON Failure

Gabon's Ministry of Sports announced the suspension of the national team and the banning of key player Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang after their disappointing AFCON campaign. The decision came after Gabon's defeat to Mozambique, leading to widespread debate and criticism.

The government cited the team's disgraceful performance and promised structural reforms. FIFA sanctions may follow due to state interference in football administration.
