The president of the Russian Football Union, Aleksandr Dyukov, views positively the issue of lifting football-related sanctions imposed by UEFA and FIFA. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, there are grounds for Russian teams to return to the international arena. Dyukov stated that significant decisions could be made in this regard by the end of the year.
For the past three years, Russian clubs and national teams have not been able to participate in official international competitions. Currently, the Russian national team is only playing friendly matches.
Previously, UEFA representatives mentioned that if the situation related to Ukraine is regulated, the sanctions imposed on Russia could be lifted. Therefore, there are hopes in the football world for Russia's return to international activity.
The duration and outcome of this process remain dependent on the political situation. This news is of significant importance for players and fans.
