Chairman of the electoral committee Ibrahim Ismail confirmed that delegates from both FIFA and AFC will present for the election. “I think they will be in Male tomorrow [Thursday]” Ibrahim Ismail said. Haveeru has not been able to confirm the details of the delegates coming for the FAM election. FIFA and AFC delegates were present to monitor the election which was postponed twice earlier. The decision to put off the election on both occasions was made based on the advice of the delegates. On August 11, the election was postponed for the second time after some clubs voiced discontent over the delegate Primo Corvaro designated by FIFA for the election.
