Another African football federation joins the Macron family. The Hero company is the new technical partner of the South Sudan Football Association. A multi-year contract has been signed and, starting next season, the Macron Hero, the logo of the international leader in teamwear, will appear on the jerseys of the South Sudan national team.

The South Sudan Football Association is one of the ‘younger’ federations in the international football scene. It celebrated its tenth anniversary this year. Founded in 2011, the SSFA became a member of the Confédération Africaine de Football (CAF) and FIFA the following year. It is based in the capital, Juba, and manages the national team as well as the national championship and cup. Under the leadership of an Italian coach, Stefano Cusin, the team has the right ambition to qualify for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

A young federation with an ambitious project that Macron shares and supports, with the quality and technical expertise of its technical staff and the ability to enhance the colors and symbols of the South Sudan national team by creating unique and exclusive match kits.
