Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA) president Nqobile Magwizi has been appointed to a FIFA position.

Magwizi will serve as a member of the FIFA Commercial and Marketing Advisory Committee for a four-year term, running from 2025 to 2029.

The committee is responsible for advising on and developing strategies to enhance the commercial value of football. Its work includes formulating and periodically reviewing FIFA’s commercial strategies and assessing the support provided to member associations in this area.

Magwizi’s appointment comes less than a year after he assumed the ZIFA presidency.

In addition, another Zimbabwean official, Stanley Nyachowe, has been appointed to the Football Technology, Innovation and Digital Transformation Committee.

The two appointments were confirmed by COSAFA on Wednesday.
