At issue is the dismissal of Ednaldo Rodrigues from the position of president of the Brazilian Football Confederation.
According to the ‘Associated Press’, Brazil runs the risk of being suspended by FIFA from all international competitions, whether for national teams or clubs. At issue are actions taken by a court in Rio de Janeiro regarding the case of dismissal of Ednaldo Rodrigues from the position of president of the CBF (Brazilian Football Confederation).
The leader was removed from office on December 7th, after irregularities were discovered in his re-election process in 2022, such that elections for the organization’s leadership are scheduled for the beginning of 2024.
The CBF, temporarily managed by José Perdiz, has recently been experiencing a management crisis, with several investigations having been opened into alleged cases of corruption within the body that oversees Brazilian football.
FIFA’s history of intolerance regarding interference by states or third parties in football federations makes the scenario of Brazilian clubs and national teams away from their respective competitions pertinent.
