Danny Jordaan re-elected as SAFA president for a fourth term
Incumbent Danny Jordaan re-elected as SAFA president for a fourth successive term
Danny Jordaan has been re-elected as South African Football Association president for his fourth consecutive term at the SAFA Elective Congress in Midrand. The 75-year-old, who has been in the position since September 2013, won the election with a significant margin, securing 157 votes compared to his opponent Sandile Zungu's 82 votes.
The election took place despite four regions, primarily supporting Zungu, being disqualified from attending and participating in the Congress due to their failure to hold the necessary internal elections prior to the National Elective Congress. Jordaan's re-election means he will likely remain president until the next elections in 2031.
