Former Cameroon international Clinton N\u2019Jie has opened up on his uncertain football future, revealing that there is currently nothing concrete on the table that would convince him to return to competitive action.<\/p>\n
N\u2019Jie was speaking to the media on Thursday after coming to watch the Indomitable Lions train ahead of their friendly against C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire on October 3.<\/p>\n
The former Tottenham Hotspur and Olympique Marseille forward said he has instead returned to Africa to rest and spend time with his family in C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire, where he has been warmly welcomed.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor now, there is nothing concrete. I haven\u2019t received any project that truly interests me, so I decided to return to Africa, rest and spend some time with my family in C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire,\u201d N\u2019Jie said.<\/p>\n
The 33-year-old explained that his connection to C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire is also personal, with his wife, Adriana Romeo, being Ivorian.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy wife is Ivorian, and I have been warmly welcomed here, just as I am in Cameroon,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
N\u2019Jie revealed that he has not played competitively for two years, leaving his return to the game dependent on how he feels and whether the right opportunity emerges.<\/p>\n
\u201cI haven\u2019t played competitively for two years. Whether I return to football will depend on how I feel,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
N\u2019Jie began his professional career at Lyon before moving to Tottenham in 2015. He subsequently played for Marseille, Dynamo Moscow, Sivasspor and Rapid Bucure\u0219ti, while also becoming an important member of the Cameroon national team during his international career.<\/p>\n
He was part of the Indomitable Lions squad that won the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations in Gabon and remains a familiar figure around the national team.<\/p>\n
For now, N\u2019Jie is taking his time away from competitive football, with the former Cameroon forward leaving the door open for a return if a project that interests him comes along.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
