Petition addressed to: FIFA, AFC, and relevant football governance bodies
We respectfully call on FIFA and AFC to conduct an independent review of the current leadership of the Afghanistan Football Federation (AFF).
Many members of the Afghan football community, including former players, coaches, and football professionals, have serious concerns about the federation's leadership, management, transparency, and development of football in Afghanistan.
Among those raising concerns is former national team coach and former national team player Ali Asghar Akbarzada, who has for many years called for greater accountability and reform within Afghan football.
We request that FIFA and AFC examine these concerns, review any available evidence, and take appropriate action to ensure transparent, professional, and effective leadership of Afghan football.
Reason
This petition is important because the future of Afghan football depends on transparent, accountable, and professional leadership.
Players, coaches, and football supporters want a federation that serves the interests of football and helps develop the sport fairly and effectively. Concerns about leadership and governance can affect player development, national teams, public trust, and the overall progress of football in Afghanistan.
We believe that an independent review by FIFA and AFC would help ensure transparency, accountability, and confidence in the management of Afghan football. The goal of this petition is to support positive reform and create better opportunities for current and future generations of Afghan football players.
Thank you so much for your support, Mukhtar Mukhtari, Kabul
