The President of the Confederation of African Football Patrice Motsepe said there should be fundamental changes in football globally.
He believes this will better the financial position of African teams to compete on the same scale with the best teams in the world.
The South African business mogul made this known in a speech during his two-day working visit to Ghana.
“We must understand that Africa football will never be able to compete against the best in the world if it isn’t put in a significantly better financial position.
“We want Europe to do that, we want South America to do that, we want the rest of the world to do that.
“But we also recognize that, there has to be fundamental changes in the way that football throughout the world is conducted.”
Motsepe is one of the visible campaigners for Fifa’s mooted World Cup every two years.
His outfit, Caf, is also rallying support to bring on board a new club competition in Africa, the African Super League.
Patrice Motsepe believes these two will alter the financial position of teams in the African continent significantly.
