Ahead of the doubleheader in February, coach Djeumfa has named a 34-player squad, comprising of 22 home-based stars and 12 foreigners for the showdown with the South Americans.

In the 34-player list, four goalkeepers, 11 defenders, eight midfielders and 11 strikers are scheduled to feature in the final camp leading to the crucial clash with Jose Letelier's team.

Besides CSKA Moscow's Aboudi Ouguene and Atletico Madrid's Ajara Nchout, Amazone's Ngah Manga and Catherine Mbengono, who tops the top-flight scoring chart, made the list.

According to the Cameroon Football Federation, (Fecafoot), the invited local players are expected to resume camp on Wednesday and will, later, be joined by their foreign counterparts.
