[Saba Sports News] UEFA President Ceferin addressed
the issue of Russia’s participation in a recent press conference. Ceferin
stated that UEFA will maintain its ban on Russia’s participation until the
conflict is resolved. Furthermore, UEFA has terminated its contract with the
Russian company Gazprom. Since the onset of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Russia
have been excluded from international football. As a result, Russia are
reportedly considering joining the AFC (Asian Football Confederation). In the
meantime, Russia are set to participate in the Central Asian Football
Federation Football Championship.
