"Azerbaijan is a sports country. This is evidenced by the success of Azerbaijan in numerous international events."
Idman.biz reports that this was said by the new AFFA president, Rovshan Najafov.
The head of the institution said that there are great opportunities to reach higher levels in the football: "We have to work neck and neck for this. Everyone should join up to bring Azerbaijan football to a better level. We need to define our goals. To prepare for this, we need to work with measurable indicators. We must help the development of children's football and the formation of young talents. Also, we must achieve the attraction of fans to stadiums and the popularity of football. We will work together in this direction. We will do things for the development of women's football and for the continuation of successful performances. There is great interest in football in our country. We would like to see this interest in the number of fans. All this is not the work of a day, but the result of time, hard work and patience. None of us are satisfied with the position of the men's national team in FIFA."
