Samuel Eto`o is still mulling over whether to join up with Cameroon in January for the African Nations Cup, or to continue playing with Barcelona in the Primera Liga in January and February next year, Bafana Bafana star Mark Fish throws in the towel, while Mido looks for a club v country solution.
ETO`O UNDECIDED
"I still have time to make a decision," the 24-year-old told Spanish daily El Periodico.
"When I make my decision it will be good for everyone. There is no point in saying anything now."

Eto`o, who is likely to decide after the Spanish league`s winter break, has been in prolific form with Barcelona scoring 17 goals in 17 games to fire the champions to the top of the table.
The two-times African Footballer of the Year is short-listed for a record-equalling third award for 2005.
He came in third behind Ronaldinho and Frank Lampard in last week`s World Player of the Year awards.
Cameroon failed to qualify for the World Cup finals in Germany next year. The African Nations Cup kicks off in Egypt on Jan. 20.
