FIFA Requests Egyptian Team to Make Changes to Its Jersey
The International Federation of Association Football 'FIFA' has issued a decision to remove the seven stars from the emblem of the Egyptian national team during tournaments held under the auspices of 'FIFA', due to their conflict with the regulations regarding national team emblems.
According to the international federation's regulations, stars are allowed on national team emblems only to indicate the number of World Cup victories, not continental or regional titles.
The seven stars on the emblem of the Egyptian national team signify its seven-time victory in the Africa Cup of Nations, which is a record in the history of the competition. However, these stars are not related to any World Cup titles.
Consequently, the Egyptian Football Association has been asked to use an emblem free of the seven stars during FIFA competitions and tournaments.
The regulations of the International Federation of Association Football stipulate that the only stars permitted on national team emblems are those representing the number of World Cup wins, prompting FIFA to make this decision regarding the Egyptian team.
Additionally, FIFA has requested the Egyptian team to change the color of the players' numbers from gold to white.
