Harry Hadzi-Risteski to become candidate for president of FIFA
The president of FFM will be candidate for a new president of FIFA after Sepp Blatter’s mandate will expire at the end of 2011. Hadzi-Risteski’s excellent leadership of the Football Federation of Macedonia is enough evidence to push him into a huge international step. Being president of FIFA isn’t a joke and our hero surely can do the job if he gets the chance.
UEFA’s president and former star player Michel Platini is one of Hadzi-Risteski’s great allies. With Platini’s connections, the Macedonian will most probably get support from at least half of the 209 FIFA members. So far only the football federations of Paraguay, Thailand, Sudan, Turkmenistan, Northern Ireland, Wales and England have given negative thoughts towards the potential presidential candidate from Macedonia.
Haralampie Hadzi-Risteski has the facts on his side. A great leader, a modern Alexander the Great. His successful leadership of the football in Macedonia through the past years shows that this man is capable of achieving great things. Under him, the Macedonian football team managed to be among the best 100 teams on the FIFA ranking list! Some people will say that Macedonia still hasn’t qualified for a major championship, but it isn’t Harry’s fault that national team coach Mirsad Jonuz is a magnet for bad luck.
Here are some of his great success’ that happened to Macedonian football during his regime:
- Macedonia is among the best 100 national teams in the world
- Macedonia hosted the 2010 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship
-
Goran Pandev transferred to Inter, won the Champions League and became champion of the world
- Stevica Ristić won the Asian Champion League
- A new stadium was build over the old Gradski stadium in Skopje with a capacity of more than 30.000
- He arranged a friendly against the European champion Spain in August 2009
- The national team was leading 2:0 on half-time against Spain
- Macedonia scored a goal in Dublin, something that former presidents of FFM failed to do on two occasions
- He fights against match fixing and therefore with FIFA and UEFA banned FK Pobeda for 8 years becoming the first club to be officially credited for match fixing by FIFA
- Growing of women’s football in Macedonia as many clubs are created and the national team managed to advance from the preliminary qualifications round
- The hooligans were banned from going to domestic away games
- A fee was introduced for the First and Second League
- England was hold to a draw on their own field, twice!
- Clubs in European cups were successful and managed to play against opponents such as Liverpool, Bolton, Lille, Basel etc.
With the facts and Platini being on his side, the popular Harry is surely going to make an impact on the FIFA presidential elections. Most probably, current FIFA president Joseph Blatter won’t be going after a fourth mandate and that leaves Harry Hadzi-Risteski with equal opponents and good chances for a win. According to the rumors, other candidates will be: Mohammed Bin Hammam (president of the Asian Football Confederation), Sebastian Bauzá (president of the Uruguayan Football Association) and Amos Adamu (president of the West African Football Union).
Meanwhile, from a source close to the president, we found out the Hadzi-Risteski is intensively learning English at a night school. Speaking a foreign language is the last condition that our candidate must fulfill so he can officially become presidential FIFA candidate.
