The former Barcelona, Inter Milan and Chelsea striker has been president of Fecafoot since 2021 and will now be barred from all men and women's games across various age groups.
“The sanction was imposed in connection with the Fifa Under-20 Women's World Cup round-of-16 match between Brazil and Cameroon played in Bogota, Colombia, on Sept 11, 2024,” Fifa said in a statement.
Details regarding the incidents were not disclosed by Fifa's disciplinary committee. The statement said Eto'o was deemed guilty of “offensive behaviour and violations of the principles of fair play”, as well as “misconduct” involving officials.
The ban follows a US$200,000 (S$257,440) fine imposed on the 43-year-old by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) in July over a brand deal with an online gambling company 1XBET, stemming from an inquiry into purported breaches of its ethical and integrity standards.
