Schalke have confirmed Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting has retired from international football only days before he was due to meet up with his Cameroon teammates to take part in the African Nations Cup.
Choupo-Moting, 27, was not expected to take part in Schalke's winter training camp and rather join Cameroon's national team for the 2017 African Nations Cup in Gabon from mid-January to early February.
However, the Germany-born attacker will instead focus on a full winter preparation with his club as they strive to make progress up the Bundesliga standings following a disappointing first half of the season.

Cameroon manager Hugo Broos has said he is “still expecting” Liverpool defender to report for duty for the Africa Cup of Nations.
Matip pulled out of contention for the tournament this month, saying he wanted to “concentrate on Liverpool,” with his last regular spell in the Cameroon squad coming in mid-2014.
The AFCON is set to run from January 14 to February 5, and Cameroon’s training camp begins on Tuesday.
But despite Matip making himself unavailable, along with six others including West Bromwich Albion right-back Allan Nyom, Broos has taken a hardline stance with their absence.
According to BBC Sport‘s John Bennett, Broos has said he’s “still expecting” the duo to arrive for Cameroon training ahead of the tournament in Gabon.
This could spark an ugly club vs. country row, with there previously being suggestions that Cameroon could call for FIFA to suspend the players that pulled out from club action for the duration of the tournament.
However, it has been reported that Liverpool don’t fear any development on that front.

"I'm back from the brink," the former Liverpool and West Ham defender who led Cameroon to back-to-back African Cup of Nations declared.
"My blood pressure was up at like 25 and it felt like my head was exploding," he said of his stroke, suffered at his home in Yaounde on 3 October 2016.
"I was lucky to fall on my side and that way when I went down my tongue came out."
"My dog started barking and the concierge came up but didn't dare come in. But then a friend showed up and got me help," he explained.
The 40-year-old was airlifted to France for specialist treatment after suffering a cerebral aneurysm and falling into a coma.
Unmissable on the pitch with his flowing dreadlocks that were dyed blond later in his career, Song also played for Metz and Lens in France and won two league titles at Galatasaray in Turkey.
For Cameroon he played in the same team as the veteran Roger Milla at the 1994 World Cup before the emergence of goal king Samuel Eto'o alongside whom he helped forge Cameroon's global status.
He was capped 137 times, 36 of them were at CAN finals where he captained his country to the trophy twice in 2000 and 2002 and also won Olympic gold in 2000.
Perhaps the lowest point of his career came at the 2003 Confederations Cup when his friend and central defence partner Marc Vivien Foe died during a game against Colombia from a hereditary heart condition.
