Gianni Infantino hopes Russian team returns to international football soon
In February 2022, FIFA suspended Russian clubs and the national team due to the military invasion of Ukraine. However, Infantino has now expressed hope that their return to the international stage will happen soon.
Details: At the UEFA and FIFA congress, Infantino stated that the organization aims to unite countries and fans through football, especially in today's divided world.
Quote: "As peace talks in Ukraine are ongoing, I hope that soon we can turn the page and bring Russia back to international football. This would mean that everything is resolved," said Infantino.
He added that football should unite, not divide.
Reminder: This season has been historic for European tournaments with the introduction of a new format for European competitions. The UEFA President commented on these changes.
