Aleksander Ceferin has been re-elected as president of European football's governing body Uefa for the next four years.
The 51-year-old was the only candidate and was elected unopposed by delegates from the 55 member associations at the Uefa Congress in Rome.
The Slovenian lawyer took over two-and-a-half years ago from disgraced predecessor Michel Platini.
The Frenchman stepped down after being banned by Fifa over ethics breaches. “I am honoured,” said Ceferin, thanking members of UEFA’s 55 member associations for reelecting him, saying he was taking over with “fewer doubts and less scepticism than before”.
“The most dangerous thing we can do is rest on our laurels and bask in our current situation,” he continued. (BBC)
