FIFA President Gianni Infantino is set to make a historic visit to Somalia later this year.
Officials say close co-operation between Somalia’s Ministry of Youth and Sports, led by Minister Mohamed Abdiqadir Ali, and the Somali Football Federation has helped strengthen the country’s ties with FIFA and raise the profile of Somali football internationally.
Somali Football Federation President and Council of East and Central Africa Football Associations (CECAFA) Vice President Ali Abdi Mohamed, known as Ali Shiine, says recent high-level meetings with Infantino and other football officials in the United States have created new opportunities and agreements aimed at advancing football development in Somalia.
