Football Federation Australia has announced that chief executive officer David Gallop will stand down from his position at the end of year.
The announcement was made in a statement from the governing body on Thursday, which detailed the plan for Gallop to vacate his post on December 31, 2019.
The 53-year-old joined the FFA as chief executive in August 2012 about two months after finishing up as NRL CEO when an independent commission announced his departure.
