The President of the South Sudan Football Association (SSFA), Francis Amin Micheal will attend a FIFA Executive Football Summit between February 13-15th in Istanbul, Turkey.
“This is
another good opportunity for me to interact with several football leaders and
also get to learn new things,” said Amin who became SSFA President a year ago.
FIFA
President Gianni Infantino is expected to grace the Summit, the second this
year after the one held in Marrakech, Morocco.
Since the launch
of the FIFA Executive Football Summits in Paris in November 2016 by Infantino,
the summits have become a vital exchange platform to discuss strategic football
matters and share best practices between member associations’ executives in an
open and constructive atmosphere.
Key topics on
the agenda for the third edition of the FIFA Executive Football Summits are the
future of FIFA’s competitions, the FIFA Forward 2.0 programme, women’s football
and video assistant referees (VARs).
“It is of
the utmost importance for FIFA to foster a continuous dialogue with all our
member associations to better understand their needs and learn from their very
diverse experiences. Through the FIFA Executive Football Summits, we can tackle
global football matters while considering the local issues facing those running
football in the member associations around the world,” says FIFA President Infantino.
