Speech by Gianni Infantinos:
Dear President Duke!
Dear friends and colleagues in the Albanian Football Federation.
Urime! Congratulations on the 90th anniversary of FIFA membership! Since becoming a member of FIFA in 1932 your Federation has built a unique and distinguished history of cooperation, football development, progress and success at all levels for men, women and youth football.
As for men’s football, we can not forget the first historic qualification and appearance in the finals of UEFA Euro 2016 in France, which brought so much joy and pride to the Albanian people and which is the result of continuous improvement in recent years.
As far as women’s football is concerned, the continuous progress and commitment to the development of women’s football across the country in recent years has been very encouraging and promises a great future.
You all know well the importance of serious work, passion and dedication, giving every talent a chance at all the highest levels. And recent successes are a clear proof of that.
Off the field, your country has also been an example of solidarity in the most challenging times. In 2021, last year, you opened the door to members of the Afghan women’s soccer community, at a time when staying in their home country became very dangerous, and I thank your country for this tremendous gesture of kindness. .
I am proud to work with you as you continue to assure us that the power of football is used to positively impact society in Albania and around the world.
So congratulations once again on everything you are doing for football and on achieving this historic 90th anniversary as a member of FIFA. We have faith in Albania and you will always have the trust of FIFA. I wish you to celebrate it as beautifully as possible, good luck for the big final of Tirana and I wish to see you soon.
