Prime Minister of Uzbekistan, was simultaneously the head of the football association. For the next 10 years,
Zokir Almatov, a
colonel general who had served as the
Minister of Internal Affairs of the Republic of Uzbekistan since 1991, led the association. In 2005, he resigned from this position due to health problems. He was succeeded by
senator Mirabror Usmanov. In 2017, Usmonov also left the position due to deteriorating health. From 2017 to 2018, Umid Ahmadjonov, who was the chairman of the
National Paralympic Committee of Uzbekistan, also became the president of the football association. At the extraordinary report-and-election conference of the federation held on January 25, 2018, a decision was made to transform the Uzbekistan Football Federation (UFF) into the Uzbekistan Football Association (UFA).
Achilbay Ramatov, chairman of the
Uzbekistan Railways state company, First Deputy Prime Minister, president of the
