Al Khalifa Denies Violations, Upholds Game Integrity

Sheikh Salman bin Ibrahim Al Khalifa, President of the Asian Football Confederation, rejected any suggestion that he exceeded his authority through his participation in the statement related to the President of FIFA. He affirmed that his action was within the scope of the legal mandate granted to him according to the AFC's statutes. He explained that the AFC is responsible for protecting the interests of football in Asia, and that remaining silent in such circumstances contradicts its responsibilities. Additionally, he dismissed calls for his resignation and received support from FIFA at a prior meeting. This came amidst ongoing pressures from Asian and European federations following the proposal to involve the private sector in the World Cup, with the Qatar Football Federation demanding greater transparency regarding the consultation processes involved in issuing collective statements.
