Offensive midfielder Gil Michée Ngomo of C.S Constatine club in Algeria and Jean Paul Yontcha, forward of Portuguese elite club SC Olhanense were handed their first respective invitations due to their output during club duty.

The 25-year old Frank Songo'o, son of the team's goalkeeper trainer and former international keeper Jacques Songo'o was called back into a team he exited in 2008. The America based forward was brought to the limelight after playing for the French U19 selection but later defended the Cameroon colours at the 2008 Olympics in China where he was very efficient with three assists in four games.

The gigantic striker Pierre Boya of Randers FC also gets the coach's beckon after playing four games and scoring one goal for the lions between 2005 and 2007. Same for Andongcho Mathew Mbuta who won favours with the lions' supporterss for scoring in almost all of the 6 games he played with the team, but was pushed out by the outsted coach Denis Lavagne who wanted to convert this fine striker into a central defender without success. The others are mainly regulars.

Meanwhile, Jean Paul Akono has flushed out some old hands from the den, with the greatest casualty being the heavily criticized goalkeeper Kameni Carlos. His recent poor shape and inability to make first team in Malaga FC in the Spanish Liga greatly created this sidelining effect. Aurelien Chedjou also pays the prize for his recent media brawl with the manager whom he called a liar and refused to play him in the recent duel against Cape Verde in Yaounde.

For the full squad:
Gks: Guy Roland Ndy Assembe (A.S Nancy France), Jocelin Mayebi (Wrexham Wales)
Defenders: Angbwa Benoit (FC Rostov, Russia), Henri Bedimo (Montpellier France), Gaétan Bong (Valencienne France), Nicolas Nkoulou (Marseille France), Jean Armel Kana Biyick (Rennes France), Dany Nounkeu (Galatasaray Turkey), Joel Matip (Shalke 04 Germany)
Midfielders: Song Alexandre (FC Barcelona, Spain), Patrick Mevoungou (Admirer wacker Austria), Gil Ngomo ( CS Constatine Algeria), Achile Emana (Al-Hilal Ryad Saudi Arabia), Frank Songo'o ( Portland Timbers USA), Olinga Fabrice (Malaga Spain)
Forwards: Adongcho Mbuta Mathew, Samuel Eto'o Fils (Anzi Russia), Vincent Aboubacar (Valenciennes France), (Pierre Boya (Randers FC Denmark), Achille Webo (Istambul B Turkey) Joel Moise Babanda (Union Douala Cameroon)
