YEREVAN, APRIL 5, ARMENPRESS. Aleksander Čeferin, president of European football’s governing body UEFA, was reelected unopposed for a new four-year term on Wednesday.

First elected in 2016, Čeferin was chosen by acclamation during the organization’s annual Congress in Lisbon. As with his first reelection in 2019, Čeferin was the only candidate.

“It really means a lot to me, it is a great honor but mainly it is a great responsibility towards you and towards football,” Politico quoted him as saying Wednesday. “I will do my best not to disappoint you and to disappoint football.”
