German Football Association President Keller urged to quit over Nazi remark Monday, 3 May 2021
German Football Association (DFB) President Fritz Keller is facing calls to resign after likening first vice-president Rainer Koch to infamous Nazi judge Roland Freisler.
The DFB confirmed the heads of the country’s regional and state football associations have urged Keller to quit in response to his completely unacceptable remark made at a Board meeting.
A secret ballot was held at an Extraordinary Meeting yesterday where a vote of no-confidence in Keller’s leadership was tabled.
A total of 26 associations voted in favour of the motion, with nine against and two abstentions.
