May 31 – Whilst Fifpro and the World Leagues Association (WLA) have threatened legal action over the overloaded international calendar and its affect of players’ health, FIFA has now been warned by the Professional Footballers’ Association (PFA) in England that players could even go on strike.
PFA chief executive Maheta Molango (pictured) believes players are now at breaking point and that football’s packed schedule not only endangers health but also diminishes the quality of the sport.
