Former Paris-Saint-Germain and Cameroon midfielder Modeste M’Bami has died aged 40 after suffering a heart attack, PSG said in a statement on Saturday.
M’Bami won two Coupes de France with the Parisian club, in 2004 and 2006, as well as an Olympic gold medal with Cameroon at the 2000 Sydney Games.
At those Olympics, M’Bami secured his place within Cameroonian footballing history as he scored a “golden goal” in extra time to seal the Indomitable Lions’ victory over Ronaldinho’s Brazil in the quarterfinals.
After beginning his career at Académie Kadji Sport, followed by Dynamo Douala in Cameroon, M’Bami joined PSG in 2003 where he stayed for three seasons.
He then spent three seasons at French side Olympique de Marseille, which was among those paying tribute to the Cameroonian, expressing its “great sadness.”
Tributes flooded in from all corners of the footballing world, including from former teammates and FIFA President Gianni Infantino.
“Such sad news,” Infantino said in an Instagram story underneath a black and white photo of M’bami. “RIP Modeste M’bami.”

Former HRW Head Accuses Harvard Dean Of Blocking Fellowship

Kenneth Roth, the former executive director of Human Rights Watch, has accused Harvard Kennedy School Dean Douglas W. Elmendorf of blocking him from a year-long fellowship at the school over Roth’s criticism of Israel’s treatment of Palestinians.
Roth alleged in a Friday interview with The Crimson that he was denied the position because of HRW’s work on Israel, a potential contradiction with the Kennedy School’s diversity statement embracing open debate and diversity of political views.
Elmendorf’s role in blocking Roth’s fellowship was first reported in The Nation on Thursday.
Roth said he agreed in June to a fellowship at the Kennedy School’s Carr Center for Human Rights Policy for the 2022-2023 academic year, but the center called him back several weeks later “sheepishly, embarrassed to say that Elmendorf had vetoed the fellowship.”
Roth said he learned why his fellowship was denied from Kathryn A. Sikkink, a professor of human rights policy at HKS, who had spoken with Elmendorf. “It was because I criticized Israel,” Roth said. Sikkink confirmed the account to The Crimson.
HKS spokesperson James F. Smith did not deny Roth’s specific allegations and declined to provide details about his fellowship candidacy.
