Aleksandras Diukovas

Aleksandras Diukovas is the general director of Gazprom Neft and has served as the president of the Russian Football Union since 2019. He was a member of UEFA's Executive Committee but faced criticism for his association with Russian football amid the geopolitical tensions surrounding the invasion of Ukraine. His position has been contentious as UEFA navigates the complexities of allowing participation from Belarusian teams while excluding Russian teams from competitions.
