ZIFA President set for strategic engagements

In a proactive move to elevate Zimbabwean football, ZIFA President Nqobile Magwizi is set to engage in strategic discussions with some of the sport’s leading figures. As part of his ambitious plan to foster growth and development, Magwizi is set to hold bilateral talks with the President of the Royal Moroccan Football Federation. This engagement aims to forge stronger ties between Zimbabwe and Morocco, countries with a shared passion for football and aspirations for excellence on the international stage.

Their impressive performance, ultimately halted by France, left an indelible mark on the global football community. Such achievements underscore the potential benefits for Zimbabwe in exchanging knowledge and expertise with Moroccan football authorities.

This initiative by President Magwizi highlights a forward-thinking approach and commitment to harnessing opportunities that can propel Zimbabwean football to new heights. By engaging with Morocco, currently ranked 14th in the FIFA rankings, Magwizi aims to draw insights and strategies that could be pivotal in transforming the local football landscape.

Following his visit to Morocco, Magwizi will attend the CAF Extraordinary General Meeting in Egypt. Magwizi who recently conducted a nationwide tour to collaborate with football stakeholders, is laying the groundwork for a robust framework to steer Zimbabwean football towards a promising future.

Through these strategic partnerships and dialogues, Magwizi is will be hoping to cultivate a vibrant football culture in Zimbabwe, drawing inspiration from global successes and adapting them to the local context.
