Widespread controversy after the decision to revoke the certification of the Syrian Football Association president
جدل واسع بعد قرار إسقاط الشهادة عن رئيس اتحاد كرة القدم في سوريا

The decision by the General Assembly to revoke the certification of the Syrian Football Association president has sparked a wave of debate and controversy within the Syrian sports circles. Many expressed their strong disapproval of the move, emphasizing that the certification is considered a fundamental pillar for any leadership position in the sports field.

In a surprising stance, Captain Abdel Qader Kurdogli and coach Nizar Mahrous immediately left the hall after the assembly approved the decision. It is worth noting that Kurdogli voted against the revocation, reflecting differing opinions among members of the sports body regarding the issue.

These developments come amidst broad follow-up by the public and the sports community, highlighting how internal conflicts are affecting the overall football scene. The situation raises questions about the future of the federation and how internal divisions will be addressed to support the development of the sport in the country.
