“We have a good relationship with the RFU. We strive to keep politics away from football’ – AFC chief on Russia’s transition to Asian Confederation

Asian Football Confederation (AFC) President Sheikh Salman bin Ibrahim Al Khalifa noted that they have not looked into the matter of transferring the RFU to the Asian Football Confederation at this time.

– If we get something official in this regard, then that is another matter, but I will not anticipate events and talk about what was not. We have good relations with the RFU and with the rest of the European federations, and we are always in contact with the federations on all questions. We start from the interest of the game, while we strive to keep politics away from football, quotes the AFC boss to AFP.

At the end of December, the RFU convened a working group to reflect on the transition to the Asian Football Confederation.

Last spring, FIFA and UEFA suspended the national team Russia and Russian clubs to participate in international competitions.
