RB Sport: RFU paid the annual fee for membership in UEFA for 2023
The Russian Football Union (RFU) at the end of 2022 paid an annual fee for membership in the European Football Union (UEFA). This became known to “RB Sport”.
According to the source, the amount was 250 Swiss francs, which is approximately 19,000 rubles. It is noted that the RFU thus paid for its stay in UEFA in 2023.
On December 30, 2022, the RFU created a working group that will study the issue of moving from UEFA to the Asian Confederation. At the same time, UEFA opposes Russia’s desire to leave the organization.
On February 28, the International Football Federation (FIFA) and UEFA excluded Russian teams and clubs from international tournaments. The teams do not play in European competitions, and the Russian team has lost the opportunity to compete for reaching the finals of the 2022 World Cup.
