Two new members will be elected as Africa's representatives on FIFA's executive committee today.

The Confederation of African Football congress is to choose its candidates for the all-powerful 25-man cabinet of world football's ruling body.

Tunisian Tarek Bouchamaoui and Constant Omari Selemani of DR Congo are favoured to finish top in the ballot.

They look likely to sweep Ivorian Jacques Anouma from the committee where he has served for eight years.

Delegates from 54 countries are also being asked to remove an age limit from the organisation's statutes in order to allow Caf president Issa Hayatou to stay in power beyond the end of his existing term.

CAF requires officials who reach 70 to step down but a proposal to scrap the rule is expected to go through.

It would open the door for Cameroon-born Hayatou, who is 68 and in his seventh term in power, to continue his leadership of African football beyond his current mandate which is due to end in 2017.

Anouma was previously a potential rival for the leadership of Caf but is now expected to join the list of Hayatou challengers who have been squeezed out of football politics.
