Ibrahim Traoré to intervene in Burkina Faso football despite FIFA suspension
Burkina Faso President Ibrahim Traoré has announced plans for his government to intervene directly in the country’s football affairs, despite the possibility of sanctions from FIFA.
Traoré made the declaration on Monday, October 5, 2026, while receiving Burkina Faso’s U15 women’s team, following growing concerns over the state of football in the country.
During the speech, Traoré signaled his willingness to risk FIFA sanctions to push through changes.
“We have no choice; we have to step in, regardless of whether we get suspended or not,” Traoré said.
