UEFA chief Ceferin reverses decision to step down, seeks final term

UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin has reversed his decision to step down from his position and has announced his intention to seek another term, reversing his previous stance. The Slovenian leader made the announcement during a meeting with the presidents and general secretaries of UEFA's 55 national associations in Berlin, stating that he would stand for a final term to continue his work as head of European soccer's governing body.

Ceferin's decision comes as UEFA's national associations push for change at FIFA, with all 55 associations except Azerbaijan supporting FIFA reform proposals and expressing their loss of confidence in the current FIFA leadership.
