PFL will help rebuild football in Pakistan by developing new generation of players. It is designed to create a new football ecosystem<br \/>\nto place Pakistan\u2019s players in top priority.<\/p>\n<p>Ashfaq Shah, President of Pakistan Football Federation (PFF) said, \u201cIt is about time we take control to secure the future of Pakistan\u2019s players. I want to save football and am proud to partner with GSV who have created a groundbreaking vision for Pakistan. It is my mission to make football recognized in Pakistan as a professional sport and give it the professional impetus to cultivate our national talent and help them compete at an international level on our own soil&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Zabe Khan, Group CEO of Global Soccer Ventures is the brainchild behind delivering an integrated ecosystem for Pakistan\u2019s football.<\/p>\n<p>Khan said: \u201cIn Pakistan, football is homeless and is like a neglected orphan for several decades. There is nothing stopping football being revived locally. Pakistan needs to rise and play \u2013 my strategy offers a tricon sports solution to Pakistan\u2019s football through a blend of infrastructure, international collaboration and a sensational league\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Mike Farnan, the Chief Operating Officer said, \u201cPakistan is a sleeping giant, with huge potential for football. At Manchester United International the globalisation strategy was to focus on emerging markets. I have decided to adopt the same approach for Pakistan by<br \/>\ncreating a new football landscape. It is a big challenge in a big nation and for that I am willing to give Pakistan\u2019s football a legitimate opportunity\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>To unveil the full scale of the plans, a groundbreaking announcement will be made by GSV in coming weeks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>KARACHI: Pakistan Football Federation (PFF) unveils the first ever partnership with Global Soccer Ventures (GSV) to kick off a franchise league called &#8211; The Pakistan <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/?p=110841\" title=\"PFF signs Global Soccer Ventures for international football league in Pakistan\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110841"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=110841"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110841\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":110843,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110841\/revisions\/110843"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=110841"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=110841"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=110841"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
