The Pakistan Football Federation (PFF) has received its third FIFA ban since 2017, which has jeopardized its men's national team's participation in the 2027 Asian Cup qualifying campaign.
On January 25, the PFF Congress had dismissed constitutional amendments proposed jointly by FIFA and the Asian Football Confederation (AFC), which had led to the latest ban, after similar sanctions in 2017 for five months and in 2021 for 14 months.
