Buenos Aires: General Confederation of Labour (CGT) secretary general Hugo Moyano, one of the most powerful labour leaders in Argentina, has said he planned to step down and was interested in seeking the presidency of the Argentine Football Federation (AFA).

"I just finished my third consecutive term. You have to give the young people a bit of a chance to hold important posts," Moyano said in an interview with the C5N television network on Sunday, reports Efe.
