Top football players around the world are expressing growing frustration with FIFA's newly proposed calendar, according to FIFPRO, the global players' union. The packed schedule is pushing many athletes to their physical and mental limits, raising concerns about player welfare.
FIFPRO highlighted that the relentless demands of an overcrowded calendar are leaving players exhausted and struggling to perform at their best. With little time for recovery or family life, many players feel they are being stretched too thin.
The union is calling for a more balanced approach to scheduling, emphasizing the need to prioritize the health and well-being of players while maintaining the quality of the game. As the debate continues, FIFPRO urges football's governing bodies to listen to the voices of those on the pitch.
