FIFA’s New Era | On The Record
As FIFA is poised to announce its new chief, outgoing Secretary General, Fatma Samoura joins On The Record to reflect on her term in the top job which she held during the organisation’s most turbulent time. Declared a criminal organisation by the US Department of Justice, a series of arrests and corruption scandals forced FIFA to take action and restore its reputation.
Filmed in Sydney before the FIFA Women’s World Cup Final, Madame Samoura talks about her skills as a career diplomat and how under her administration, women’s football has seen an unprecedented rate of growth and discusses the long-term plan for engagement, equality, and support for the ‘Beautiful Game’.
