Perhaps some Russian checks have cleared in FIFA accounts?

Just when you think FIFA can't go lower...they go lower.

The way I read it, FIFA is saying the UAF doesn't have a way to remove the current president of the UAF, no matter what his transgressions were, and that holding a special meeting to do so has to be in person, not virtual, despite there being a war on.

So essentially the UAF wants to remove a corrupt executive, but FIFA says no can do. I'll leave the irony of that to the readers imagination.

It seems The gadgy in charge of Ukrainian FA has been dipping his hand into funds supposed to be supporting those affected by the war and has got caught.

FIFA want to suspend them because of it and the Ukrainians are trying to replace him with shevchenko so they don’t get suspended but the original gadgy is saying it’s a Russian plot rather than just stepping down hence causing the problem.

Terrible title. FIFA can’t ban Ukraine from playing not a sport.

Sounds like the Ukraine security services are siphoning funds from the football federation? Confusing AF. Feel bad though for these journalists that have to make sense of international football scandals.

TLDR: Ukraine football boss misused funds and they want to replace him with a legend , but FIFA is worried that the Russian and Ukraine government may have influence in the football federations “election”. So fifa has the option to suspend them from international football for a bit.
