AIFF'S AGM Calls For Independent Inquiry On Stimac’s Contract Renewal Procedures

The Annual General Body: The Annual General Body meeting of AIFF, which was held following the ExCo meeting in Hyderabad on Monday saw the members discuss the renewal, termination and eventual settlement of claims under the federation's contract with former head coach Igor Stimac.

Noting that the former head coach had filed a claim of 920,000 US Dollars before the FIFA Football Tribunal before eventually entering into a full and final settlement with the AIFF, the members called for an independent inquiry into the internal procedures that had been followed and the personnel that were involved when the head coach's contract had been renewed in 2023 on unapproved and unfavorable terms, which eventually left the AIFF in a compromised negotiating position leading to significant financial detriment to the federation in the settlement of the claim.

In other developments, the Executive Committee of the AIFF discussed and proposed to have India Under 20 men’s national team participate in I-League competition.
