Scheduled for August 18, the start of the league championship had been postponed. It was finally set for August 27.
Ligue 1 will resume its rights in thirteen days, on August 27, decided the Ministry of Youth and Sports, which announced yesterday in a statement, published on its Facebook page, that the start date of the Professional Ligue 1 championship was postponed to August 27 or 28, 2024.
This announcement was made, after a visit that the Minister of Youth and Sports, Kamel Deguiche, made at the headquarters of the Tunisian Football Federation, in the company of the chief of the cabinet, Chokri Ben Hassan and the Director General of Sports, Moncef Cherif.
Let us also recall that the Tunisian Football Federation (FTF) is still without president. The FIFA Council office decided, last month to appoint a standardization committee for the football body.
Thus, after two extensions, FIFA decided to put an end to the mandate to the federal office and to appoint a standardization committee which will be responsible for provisionally directing Tunisian football, on the eve of the 2024-2025 season.
The mandate of the standardization committee will run until the election of a new federal office with a maximum period set for January 31, 2025. This committee, the composition of which, will be announced soon by FIFA will be the subject of an eligibility control carried out by the FIFA control commission.
