Mamady Doumbouya has been elected president of the Guinean Football Federation (FGF) following an Extraordinary and Elective General Assembly held in Conakry on Tuesday, October 27, 2026.

Doumbouya secured 21 votes from the 52 voters who participated in the election, earning the mandate to lead the country’s football governing body for the next four years.

The election marks a new chapter for Guinean football, with Doumbouya set to take charge of the federation at a time when the development of the domestic game, improved football administration and stronger performances by the country’s national teams remain important priorities.

The Extraordinary and Elective General Assembly brought together voters to determine the leadership of the federation for the next four-year term.

With his election confirmed, Doumbouya will be responsible for overseeing the administration and development of football in Guinea, including the organisation of domestic competitions, support for clubs and investment in grassroots football.

His leadership will also involve working to improve the competitiveness of Guinea’s national teams and strengthening the country’s position in African football.

However, the immediate priorities and specific programmes of the newly elected president were not outlined in the information released about the election.

Doumbouya’s emergence is expected to attract attention from stakeholders across Guinean football as the federation begins a new leadership cycle.

The coming months will provide an opportunity for the new administration to set out its plans for the game, address existing challenges and establish its priorities for the four-year tenure.

Guinea has a long-standing presence in African football, and the performance of its national teams, the development of young players and the growth of domestic competitions remain important areas for the federation.

Doumbouya’s election therefore presents an opportunity to outline a clear direction for the sport and strengthen collaboration among clubs, players, coaches and other football stakeholders.

With 21 votes recorded in his favour, the newly elected president now faces the task of translating his electoral mandate into practical reforms and measurable progress for Guinean football.
