sports;Eto’o quits international soccer

Cameroon’s record goalscorer, Samuel Eto’o, has retired from international football, the four-time African player of the year announced on Wednesday.
The 33-year-old, who recently signed for Premier League Everton, scored 56 goals in 118 appearances after making his debut as a 15-year-old in 1997, Reuters reports.
“I wish to inform you that I hereby put a definitive end to my international career,” Reuters quoted Eto’o as saying in a statement on his Facebook page.
“On this occasion, I wish to thank all Africans in particular and all my fans around the world for their love and unconditional support. Find here the expression of my deep gratitude.”
Eto’o played at four World Cups, lifted two African Cup of Nations in 2000 and 2002, and was part of the team that won the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia.
