Almost unknown and criticized upon his arrival as coach of the Indomitable Lions, Marc Brys is surprisingly already coveted…
Two games and he might be gone? After making promising debuts – a 4-1 victory against Cape Verde and a goalless draw in Angola during the 2026 World Cup qualifiers – amidst a tense backdrop due to conflicts between the Ministry of Sports and the Cameroonian Football Federation (Fécafoot), and strained relations with Samuel Eto’o, Marc Brys could already be looking to leave. This scenario may seem surprising, but according to the Dutch-speaking Belgian newspaper Nieuwsblad, it’s a real possibility. Nigeria on the offensive?
Selon les médias belges suite à la démission de Finidi George, le Nigeria s’intéresse à Marc Brys sélectionneur des Lions Indomptables.

Les nigérians voudraient profiter de la mésentente entre le président de la FECAFOOT et le technicien belge pour lui proposer un contrat.
According to this source, the Nigerian national team, runners-up in the last AFCON, is eyeing the Belgian coach. Following the dismissal of Finidi George after a relatively tough start (one point from two matches), the Super Eagles are indeed in search of a new coach.
If this information is confirmed in the coming days, it remains to be seen whether Brys will choose to leave for Nigeria. It’s an enticing challenge from a sporting perspective… Nevertheless, Brys’ circle, confirming Nigerian interest, also indicated that the coach feels comfortable in Cameroon despite internal conflicts.
