The Kosovo Football Federation (KFF) is expected to become a member of the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) and the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) very soon through a UN resolution, an unnamed KFF official told the newspaper Sport Plus. “A resolution has been prepared at the United Nations which says that neither Serbia nor any other country should prevent Kosovo sports teams from gaining membership in international arenas”, the source said, adding that this will then enable Kosovo to join UEFA and subsequently FIFA. According to the source, the resolution is a result of the Brussels agreement reached between Pristina and Belgrade. The UEFA Congress is set to take place on 24 March 2015 in Vienna, and if the resolution is passed by then, Kosovo will be able to apply for membership.
