Lauren Etame Meyer has continued to cast doubts over a possible return to the Indomitable Lions.
Head coach Winfried Schafer has not yet been able to convince Lauren to change his mind.
After meeting with Schafer in London recently, Lauren told the Cameroon media that he was still unhappy.
« I want to play for the national team, » he said, « but many things are happening which are not good for me. »
The Arsenal player turned his back on the Indomitable Lions in November citing poor management.
« we are going to meet again »: Lauren Etame Meyer
In previous meetings with Cameroon’s FA, Lauren had insisted he wanted to talk to Schafer, the main man in charge.
Although Lauren has not accepted he will return to play for the national team, his stance does appear to have softened, and is willing to talk again.
« Schafer came to see me and we are going to meet again on the eve of the Confederations Cup », he said.
That tournament in June is the next official outing for the Lions.
Many fans are hoping Lauren can resolves his differences with the FA and rejoin the squad.
The calls for negotiations with Lauren to be stepped up have intensified following the poor showing of the Lions in a friendly tournament in Tunisia last weekend, their 3-0 loss to Ivory Coast earlier in the year, and because Lauren is in form for club side Arsenal.
