Former AC Milan skipper, Clarence Seedorf, 42, and dutch international, Patrick Kluivert, 42, have been appointed by the Cameroonian Football Federation as their national team coaches.

Cameroon’s Minister of Sport and Physical Education, Pierre Ismael Bidoung Mkpatt, revealed this at a news conference on Saturday and comes after talks with former England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson failed to reach an agreement.

According to the appointment, Seedorf was named the head coach and will take over from the Belgian Hugo Broos, who led the side to a surprise victory at the 2017 African Nations Cup finals but was axed in November after failing to win a place at the World Cup in Russia.

His Dutch compatriot Kluivert who was an assistant coach to Netherlands boss Louis van Gaal between 2012 and 2014, and was later briefly in charge of Dutch Caribbean nation Curacao will be his assistant.
