The Federation of International Football, FIFA, says it would seek legal advice before deciding on Palestinian proposal to suspend Israel from international matches in July.
FIFA President, Gianni Infantino announced the plan at the organisation’s annual congress in Bangkok, Thailand, after the Palestine Football Association (PFA) presented arguments accusing the Israel Football Association (IFA) of violating FIFA statutes with its war on Gaza.
PFA President Jibril Rajoub also accused Israel of including teams located in Palestinian territory in its domestic league.
While Israel called the ban request cynical, Infantino said it would seek independent legal analysis of the three ban requests and ensure the statutes of FIFA are applied in the right way
