UAF President Andriy Shevchenko spoke about his meeting with FIFA President Gianni Infantino, which took place in Paris during the organisation's Congress.
"Firstly, we talked about Ukraine, about the situation in the country. We talked about how we can not only preserve football in Ukraine, but also develop it during the war.
This is a big challenge for me. I think we can work on different projects. One of my key points is to help grassroots football and develop programmes for younger generations.
Women's football and digitalisation were also on the agenda. FIFA has many programmes that we already use as an association, but we plan to use them more and see where we can cooperate. In addition, it is very important for us to have this international connection and work with the FIFA Foundation," Shevchenko said.
