FIFA suspends Pakistan Football Federation for third time since 2017

By our Special Correspondent

The International Football Federation (FIFA) has suspended the Pakistan Football Federation (PFF) for failing to make amendments to its constitution which the world body deemed necessary for smooth and just governance of the sport in the country.

                   Pakistan football has been run by a FIFA-appointed Normalization Committee since June 2019 which was tasked with holding elections and cleaning up parallel groupings in the football set-up but it has failed to execute these plans properly. As a result, FIFA said Pakistan would remain suspended until the PFF Congress made those amendments.
