Ayon: Even if the President of Spain comes to invite me personally, I will choose to play for Cameroon

6686 Sports November 14th Cameroon forward Ayon, who currently plays for Levante, talked about the reasons for choosing to join the Cameroon national team in an interview.

After making his international debut last October, Ayon is heading into the two most important games of his short national team career: Cameroon are fighting to retain their hopes of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup. They will face the Democratic Republic of the Congo in the semi-finals, and if they advance, their opponent in the finals will be the winner between Nigeria and Gabon. In the end, only one African team advanced to the final play-offs to compete with teams from four other continents.

In this matchup between Cameroon and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ayon will undoubtedly be one of the players that attracts much attention: the Levante striker scored 6 goals and provided 3 assists in the first three points of the season and has become a dazzling star in La Liga.

However, in an interview with Sporty TV, the topic turned to Ayon's national team choice - although there were rumors that he might play for the Spanish national team, he ultimately chose Cameroon. The Douala-born striker said: "Choose Spain? That is impossible. My heart belongs to Cameroon. Even if the Spanish president comes to me personally and says: 'Please come'... I will tell him that I am sorry, but I will follow my heart."
