However, it will not lead to a full return for Russia as just their Under-17 team’s appearances are being discussed.
They could reportedly be allowed to play without their kit, flag or anthem.
There has been a blanket ban on the country and teams from the nation competing on the international stage since they invaded Ukraine in February 2022.
