Cameroon are set to take part in their eighth World Cup later this year after missing out on the previous edition in Russia.
They booked their ticket for Qatar after seeing off Algeria in the qualification play-offs, with Karl Toko Ekambi as his side's hero following a goal in the dying seconds of extra time.
Their best run in the competition was a quarter-final finish back in 1990, when they won the hearts of fans across the world with their entertaining style of play.
They face a tough task to improve on that performance this time around as they were paired with favourites Brazil, Serbia and Switzerland in what will prove to be a tough group.
They have plenty of experience in their squad, though, and will be hoping to spring a surprise come November.
Here are the final choices for their 26-man squad…
Goalkeepers: Devis Epassy (Abha Club), Simon Ngapandouetnbu (Olympique de Marseille), Andre Onana (Inter Milan)
Defenders: Jean-Charles Castelletto (Nantes), Enzo Ebosse (Udinese), Collins Fai (Al Tai), Olivier Mbaizo (Philadelphia Union), Nicolas Nkoulou (Aris Salonika), Tolo Nouhou (Seattle Sounders), Christopher Wooh (Stade Rennes)
Midfielders: Martin Hongla (Verona), Pierre Kunde (Olympiakos), Olivier Ntcham (Swansea City), Gael Ondoua (Hannover 96), Samuel Oum Gouet (Mechelen), Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa (Napoli)
Forwards: Vincent Aboubakar (Al Nassr), Christian Bassogog (Shanghai Shenhua), Eric-Maxime Choupo Moting (Bayern Munich), Souaibou Marou (Coton Sport), Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford), Nicolas Moumi Ngamaleu (Young Boys Berne), Jerome Ngom (Colombe Dja), Georges-Kevin Nkoudou (Besiktas), Jean-Pierre Nsame (Young Boys Berne), Karl Toko Ekambi (Olympique Lyonnais)
STRONGEST XI
Onana is the man to slot in between the sticks, with Fai and Tolo to occupy the wide full-back positions and defensive reinforcement to be provided by Castelletto and Nkoulou.
A midfield three of Hongla, Gouet and Ondoa seems like a realistic option.
Aboubakar is Cameroon's highest active goalscorer and likely to start through the middle, with Brentford's Mbeumo and Lyon's Toko Ekambi to support him from the wings.
Cameroon XI (4-3-3): Onana; Fai, Castelletto, Nkoulou, Tolo; Hongda, Gouet, Ondoua; Mbeumo, Aboubakar, Toko Ekambi
