This is the negative side of social networks: fake news. For several weeks, the Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike has been at the center of an incredible rumor around his selection choice. A few months ago, during an interview for the team, he mentioned the French team. “It is the coach (Didier Deschamps) who decides. I focus on how to always do more for, why not, get there one day. But we may be the best nation in the world, places are expensive so it must be deserved. I see it like the Grail. The French team represents everything. ”
But recently, a false statement is circulating around Cameroon. First on Facebook then taken up by big African media and even Canal+ Africa. The attacker would have said: “Playing for France is my primordial dream but if I am snubbed by France, I will really have no choice but to represent my father's country, I'm talking about Cameroon.” Contacted by us in front of the magnitude of this rumor, Ekitike came out of silence to deny these invented words to harm him. “I have never spoken of a selection choice, I formally demerse what has been relayed recently on this subject”. This is clear.
