Fifa to conduct audit on PFF

PFF president Nonong Araneta told ANC Fifa will conduct an audit of the funds the international body sent to the Philippines for the past years.

The previous president, Mari Martinez, was ousted for his mishandling of P2.8 million, a fraction of what the PFF received from Fifa last year. During the World Cup, Fifa announced each national FA will receive $200,000 on top of its annual aid of $250,000.

Araneta said he welcomes the audit and upon ribbing from the ANC host, promised that next year's Fifa aid will go to where it is supposed to go.

Araneta also said the Azkals will be re-joining the Southeast Asian Games, an Under 23 competition, after skipping the 2007, and 2009 editions.

And on a positive note, when asked if there will be changes in the team's lineup or coach, the president, unlike the previous president, said "it will be all up to Dan Palami."

P.S.
I learned Indonesia will hold international tryouts for its Under 23 squad and it is also in the process of "naturalizing" four foreigners who have an Indonesian parent.
