Two African football legends — Sulley Muntari of Ghana and Samuel Eto’o of Cameroon — shared some of their most iconic footballing moments together at Inter Milan. Their time in Italy remains a golden memory for African football fans worldwide.
During the late 2000s and early 2010s, Inter Milan boasted a powerful squad, and the connection between Muntari and Eto’o stood out. Their brotherhood both on and off the pitch was admired by teammates and supporters alike. Muntari, a strong and technically gifted midfielder, often supplied the energy and defensive cover, while Eto’o delivered the killer finishes up front.
Under the leadership of José Mourinho, Inter Milan achieved one of the most historic treble-winning seasons in 2009–10, conquering the Serie A, the Coppa Italia, and the UEFA Champions League. Both African stars played crucial roles in this success, making the continent proud on the biggest stage.
Eto’o’s leadership, humility, and sharp instincts perfectly complemented Muntari’s determination and strength. The pair’s warm celebrations after goals symbolized African unity in European football, inspiring many young talents across the continent.
Years later, both men remain icons of the game, respected for their achievements and the powerful bond they displayed as African brothers. Their story at Inter is not just about football — it’s about legacy, unity, and pride for Africa.
