Jorge named new boss of Cameroon

Experienced former Porto and Paris St Germain coach Arthur Jorge was named as the new manager of Cameroon today.

Jorge replaces Winfried Schaefer, Cameroon's long-time German coach who was sacked in November after a run of poor results in qualifiers for the 2006 World Cup and a 3-0 loss to Germany in a friendly. 

The Indomitable Lions are currently struggling in third place in the African Zone Group 3 behind Ivory Coast and Libya following two wins, two defeats and one loss.  

The 59-year-old Jorge was coach at CSKA Moscow until last July. He is Cameroon's 20th national team coach.
