BUJUMBURA, June 16 (ABP) – The certification process for the Intwari Stadium is well underway. An expert from the Football International Federation Association (FIFA), Mohammed Goulette, has been visiting Bujumbura since Thursday, June 12, 2025. His mission is to evaluate the quality of the new surface installed on this iconic Burundian football facility.

According to a statement from the Burundi Football Federation (FFB), this inspection is a crucial step. It precedes the expected arrival of another expert, this time from the Confederation of African Football (CAF), specializing in sports infrastructure.

The latter’s analysis will be decisive for the final validation of the stadium, allowing it to host international matches again.

The FFB praises that joint technical support from CAF and FIFA, which represents concrete backing for Burundi’s reintegration into the continental and international football scene.
