The top goalscorer in the just concluded African Cup of Nations (AFCON), Emilio Nsue has been suspended indefinitely from his national team. The 34-year-old Intercity striker had claimed the golden boot in the 2023 AFCON tournament after netting five goals in four appearances for Equatorial Guinea. In a statement issued on the organization's official website, the Equatoguinean Football Federation disclosed that the captain was suspended for breaching disciplinary rules and will therefore not be involved in any national team duties until further notice.
