Soccer-Ceferin will not stand for re-election for UEFA presidency in 2027

Aleksander Ceferin announced on Thursday that he would not stand for re-election for the UEFA presidency in 2027.

"I have decided, let's say around six months ago, that I'm not planning to run in 2027 anymore," Ceferin told a press conference after the UEFA Congress in Paris.

"The reason is that after some time every organisation needs fresh blood, but mainly because I was away for my family for seven years now and I will be away from for another three years."
