New statutes
The UEFA Executive Committee suspended the FSHF on 28 March due to governmental interference in the internal affairs of the association and in Albanian football in general. The new statutes of the FSHF have been signed by the Albanian sports minister and registered with the appropriate Albanian court. There are still further discussions taking place, with a four-party working group composed of FIFA, UEFA, the FSHF and the Albanian sports ministry meeting in order to improve co-operation within the Albanian football family.
