Ankaragucu are 11th in the Turkish league, 30 points adrift of leaders Fenerbahce.
Former Cameroon captain Rigobert Song also plays in Turkey, for Trabzonspor, and French-born coach Paul LeGuen said both he and Geremi, who have 247 caps between them, had a chance of making the squad.
HOME ADVANTAGE
Cameroon are the highest-ranked African team and the continent's most successful, reaching the 1990 World Cup quarter-finals and now preparing for their sixth appearance in the sport's showpiece event.
"The difference between us and some other African teams is our mentality and fighting spirit, like our emblem the lion," Geremi said.
"We have a lot of players in Europe playing in big teams. Other teams in Africa do too, but it is important to have good players, good mentality and the ability to play together." Cameroon begin their Group E campaign against Japan on June 14 and will also face Denmark and Netherlands as the tournament takes place in Africa for the first time. "We have to think that we are playing at home," Geremi said. "When teams play at home they get a big advantage. Our group is very very difficult but everything is possible."
