We will build a stadium for 6,000 seats, AFFA said.

The session of the executive committee and the next conference have been held at AFFA’s administrative building today.
At the end of the AFFA Conference, its president Rovnag Abdullayev spoke to the press.

In particular, according to News.Az, he declared the planned construction of a football stadium in Mardakan for 6,000 seats in the Dalga base. "The construction will be financed by AFFA”, said Rovnag Abdullayev. “There has already  been built a stadium for beach soccer. We want to make a base of the national team at Dalga. Also, as is known, the project of the arena for 60,000 seats, whose construction will be financed by the state, has already been prepared.

We  have postponed the adoption of the final decision on the format of the next championship of the Premier League until May, but now I can say that the championship will be held in four rounds. It is only left  to define the number of teams. In addition, beginning from the next season the clubs will again have the opportunity to negotiate with television channels on demonstration of their matches.
