Internal Source Reveals Financial Disputes Within Sri Lanka’s Football Federation

An internal source has disclosed rising tensions within the Football Federation of Sri Lanka (FFSL) over financial and governance issues. Concerns have mounted following delays in paying the CEO’s monthly salary, reportedly around USD 7,500, which has sparked questions among Executive Committee (ExCo) members about financial priorities amid a restricted budget.

The ExCo members have called for transparency regarding FFSL’s expenditures and expressed dissatisfaction with infrequent meetings, which they argue hinder effective financial oversight. With an impending governance review by FIFA, internal pressure is growing for reforms in financial management to better serve the country’s football development.
