George Weah Leads FIFA Anti-Racism Initiative with Global Football Legends

FIFA has introduced a new Players Voice Panel led by former Ballon d'Or winner George Weah to combat racism in football. The panel includes global football legends like Didier Drogba and Formiga, representing players from 14 different countries across men's and women's football.
This diverse group will provide guidance and participate in educational programs to drive reform and combat racism and discrimination in the sport. FIFA President Gianni Infantino emphasized the importance of education at all levels of football to promote lasting transformation and eradicate racism, considering it a crime that warrants full punishment.
This initiative follows recent incidents of racial abuse in football, with a focus on promoting a culture of inclusivity and respect.
