UEFA strongly condemns the recent attack on the President of the Football Federation of North Macedonia (FFM), Muamed Sejdini.

UEFA urges local authorities to conduct a swift and thorough investigation. Together with FIFA, we will closely monitor the situation within the Northern Macedonian football community to ensure that the federation remains free from any interference, in line with UEFA and FIFA Statutes, and we will continuously assess whether further action is required.

A joint FIFA/UEFA delegation will soon travel to North Macedonia to meet with sporting and government officials, ensuring the independence of the FFM is upheld and respected.
