Players and former players have been given a voice and a place at the table by taking part in committees, projects, and working groups."

The integration of these former players goes far beyond simple ambassadorial roles. Cafu was eager to point out that their vast on-pitch experience directly influences current sporting policies. The group feels genuinely respected by the sport's central authority.

"We know how football can transform lives, improve societies and expand opportunities to people all over the world; and we are committed to continue bringing that hope to them. We remain on hand to support the great progress that our sport has experienced in the past decade, ensuring that it continues to reach and benefit people in all the countries where football is played around the world."

Looking ahead, Cafu made it clear that this partnership between former players and FIFA is set to continue. The established working groups will maintain their active roles in shaping future regulations and developmental projects.

The ultimate goal is to guarantee that the sport's ongoing expansion reaches every corner of the globe. Through this continued collaboration, Cafu and his peers hope to ensure football benefits people in all countries where the game is played.
