Football: AFC To Introduce New League For National Teams
In a statement, the AFC revealed growing challenges in fully utilising FIFA international match windows, including limited opponent availability, rising costs, and logistical difficulties, which the AFC said have reduced the sporting value of international fixtures.
"These challenges have highlighted the need for a more structured, predictable and sustainable competition framework for teams and, following a comprehensive internal review and consultation process, the Confederation has decided in principle to introduce an AFC League," read the statement.
