Cameroon's British-based players
Arsenal's Alexandre Song, Reading's Andre Bikey and Portsmouth's Franck Songo'o

The Premier League's 'big four' are losing players to the Olympics, with Arsenal's Alexandre Song in action.

Reading's Cameroon defender Andre Bikey made unwanted headlines last season when he decided to shove a medic during the Africa Cup of Nations.

Bikey got a red card for his antics, but when he sticks to football, the 23-year-old is a strong physical presence and capable of scoring from set pieces.

Franck Songo'o has struggled at Portsmouth, with his face more familiar to fans of Bournemouth, Preston, Crystal Palace and Sheffield Wednesday.
