KUWAIT CITY: Olympic Council of Asia President Sheikh Ahmad Al-Fahad Al-Sabah of Kuwait will seek re-election to the FIFA Council after the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) named him as one of eight candidates for the four spots available for the continent. Sheikh Ahmad, who heads the Association of National Olympic Committees and is an influential International Olympic Committee (IOC) member, currently has a FIFA Council seat, the term of which ends in May. Kuwait was currently banned by both the IOC and FIFA for government interference in the running of the national sports associations. The FIFA Council replaced the largely discredited Executive Committee as FIFA’s decision-making body under reforms instituted in the wake of the 2015 corruption scandal in soccer’s world governing body.
