Brazilian clubs to boycott CBF presidential elections; players lobby for change
May 23 – Brazilian football clubs will boycott the CBF elections to protest against what they claim is an unbalanced power structure in the domestic game with Samir Xaud (pictured), president of the Roraima Football Federation, poised to become the organisation’s new president.
A group of 20 clubs from Serie A and B, Brazil’s top two leagues, have said that their representatives will not attend the CBF elections on Sunday as a protest against the electoral process that has catapulted Xaud into pole position in an election that will see him unopposed.
