Cameroon football feud turns comical as Samuel Eto’o-led FECAFOOT withholds training kit
Conflict has resurfaced between Cameroon Football Association and the country’s Sports Ministry with Fecafoot withholding the players’ training kits days after a ‘truce’ was reached.
The talented midfielder was attempted to seek safety away from the muggers inside the French hotel but unfortunately, the doors were locked.
The Daily Mail further noted that the thieves had pulled his luxury watch from his wrist before departing the scene in a car and that Bissouma and his wife were left in a state of shock. They were forced to return to England later on Sunday despite being due to spend several days on holiday in Cannes.

From the look of things, it appears that Bissouma returned to Tottenham's training ground in Enfield to receive some treatment after he posted a photo on his Instagram story indicating that.
He had picked up a knee injury during their 2-1 victory against Burnley on May 11, forcing him not to feature in Tottenham's post-season friendly against Newcastle in Australia due to the issue.
Bissouma went on to play in 28 Premier League matches for Tottenham this season and he seemed to take to life under the Australian coach quickly.
His good form at the start of the season may have been impacted by a difficult few months on international duty with Mali at the Africa Cup of Nations but they suffered a defeat to the eventual champions Ivory Coast.
