Fifa president Gianni Infantino has congratulated re-elected Fifa Council member Mahfuza Akhter Kiron for her consecutive victories in the Asian Football Confederation Congress.
Sending Kiron a congratulatory letter Thursday, Infantino said, “Having now returned to Switzerland, I would like to congratulate you again, on behalf of Fifa and myself, on your re—election as member of the Fifa Council for the 2019—23 period, at the 29th AFC Congress 2019, held last Saturday in Kuala Lumpur.
“This is a great honor and a magnificent proof of the confidence of the AFC member associations, recognizing your work, experience and expertise, not to mention your human qualities. I wish you every success and satisfaction in fulfilling this new mandate within the Fifa Council.”
