Japan's Kozo Tashima has announced his candidacy for Fifa's upcoming presidential election.
Kozo Tashima, the honorary president of the Japanese Football Association (JFA), will challenge Gianni Infantino for the FIFA presidency, according to reports. Infantino’s position appeared under threat after a dropped plan for private investment in the World Cup caused consternation, but he has rallied and now looks to be in a strong position to win a fourth term at FIFA Congress in Morocco next year.
Honorary Japanese football president Kohzo Tashima is set to challenge Gianni Infantino for the Fifa presidency, with growing opposition emerging to the Swiss-Italian ahead of next year's election.
