Paraguayan Alejandro Dominguez has been unanimously elected as
president of CONMEBOL, the governing body of South American football.
Dominguez was the only candidate and received all 10 votes from the 10 CONMEBOL member federations
Dominguez steps into the position after the last three presidents
were arrested in the sweeping corruption scandal surrounding FIFA.
"My biggest promise is to restore credibility to CONMEBOL," the
44-year-old told the confederation members. "We want to emphasize
transparency. We want to return to the essence of football, the values
and the fair play."
