WINDHOEK (Reuters) - The Council of Southern Africa Football Associations (COSAFA) has thrown its weight behind incumbent Gianni Infantino ahead of FIFA presidential elections next year, an indication that he will enjoy widespread support across Africa.

New COSAFA president Artur de Almeida e Silva made the announcement on Saturday in the presence of Confederation of African Football president Patrice Motsepe.

"He has repeatedly displayed his desire to grow African football and has backed up his words with action." Angolan Artur de Almeida was also elected unopposed on Saturday as president of COSAFA, which is made up 14 national associations of Southern Africa, a sizeable voting bloc. Motsepe took the opportunity of COSAFA’s Elective General Assembly to re-iterate CAF’s support for holding the Soccer World Cup every two years, a controversial idea that has drawn sharp criticism from Europe and South America in particular.
