Charlton chief executive Katrien Meire has been re-elected to the FA Council.

Meire was first appointed as one of four Football League representatives last summer.

The Belgian joins Fleetwood chief executive Steve Curwood on the FA Council following a ballot among the EFL’s 72 clubs for the 2017/18 campaign.

Meire and Charlton owner Roland Duchatelet have been subject to regular protests from Charlton fans for the way they have run the club.

But Meire has helped Addicks boss Karl Robinson build a squad this summer that they hope will be able to push for League One promotion.

The club want to bring in a striker before the transfer window closes, with Barnet frontman John Akinde a target.
