Football Transfer

As I was wandering around the streets of my town I found this sticker/transfer of Vincent Aboubakar pasted to a graffiti wall (upside down).

Not knowing anything about the chap I had a look on-line...so here's a bit of info on him.

'Born in Yaoundé, Cameroon, Aboubakar began his career with Cotonsport Garoua.

On 18 August 2009, Aboubakar was called up to the Cameroon national under-20 football team squad for the Francophone Games in Beirut.

In May 2010, aged only 18, he was named to the Cameroon 23-man squad for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Aboubakar was the only player in the squad who was based in Cameroon. He made his debut in the friendly match on 29 May 2010 against Slovakia.

On August 11, 2010 Aboubakar scored his first goal for the national team, in a friendly against Poland.

He was called up for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil, and subsequently for the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations.

In the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations, Aboubakar scored an 88th minute goal in the final to hand Cameroon a comeback 2-1 victory against Egypt to end his nation's 15 year wait for a continental crown.
