Well-known football lawyer Yuri Yurchenko commented on the possibility of Russia's "evacuation" from UEFA to Asia.
Yuri Yurchenko- This is ridiculous. Even if they move to Asia, on the one hand, they are dear to them there. On the other hand, the level of football there is much lower. This is perfectly noticeable in all world championships, no matter how we say that football has leveled off and all countries have learned to play from it. Legally, this will not change anything, since sanctions have been adopted not only at the UEFA level, but at the FIFA level. FIFA decisions are valid throughout the planet and do not depend on which continental federation they will be located in.
For them, absolutely nothing will change. This is some kind of manipulation to show in front of their audience that they are doing something, that they do not agree with something. It's like they defiantly left the European Court of Human Rights, but this happened after they wanted to be expelled from there anyway. Now they say they want to leave UEFA. Well, get out. What's next? the lawyer said.
