Kessler and Stankovic Join with UEFA

Former footballers Nadine Kessler and Dejan Stankovic have taken up roles with UEFA, the governing body of European football.

Kessler has joined UEFA’s team as a women’s football advisor, which will give her the opportunity to pass on her knowledge for the good of the women’s game.

Her main roles will include helping to oversee the development of women’s football, as well as having an input in the growth of women’s competitions.

Stanković, one of Serbia’s most decorated footballers and a UEFA Champions League winner with Inter Milan , has also moved to Nyon to take up a role as a football development advisor.

He will work on UEFA projects assisting UEFA national associations to develop their best talents at the age of 14/15, as well as ensuring that top-class football education provided in the very early stage of their growth enhances the technical level of the future professional footballers.
