With a new chairman of the PFF normalisation committee, we can expect Pakistan football to come out of the quagmire it has been stuck in for years
And finally FIFA and AFC changed the guard, bringing in a fresh-looking Pakistan Football Federation (PFF) Normalisation Committee to hold the PFF elections. Canada-based football enthusiast Haroon Malik has been brought in as the chairman. And out of the remaining four members three have been replaced. Only Muneer Ahmad Khan Sadhana, who served as acting chairman after the resignation of former chairman Humza Khan, has been retained. Former PFF officials Shahid Khokhar, Saud Hashmi and Haris Azmat have replaced Col Mujahid, Sikandar Khattak and Asma Bilal. While Sadhana and Shahid are well-known to all football stakeholders, Haris is a Lahore-based lawyer, while Hashmi is based at Karachi.
