The three European club competitions will be expanded to 36 teams from next season. In addition, next year a World Cup with 32 teams will be held in the United States (June 15 to July 13). FIFPRO and the WLA expressed their concern about the expansion of competitions in a letter reviewed by ‘BBC Sport’ and addressed to FIFA president Gianni Infantino and general secretary Mattias Grafstrom.
The letter states that the global football calendar is “beyond saturation” and that national leagues are not properly organizing their competitions, while players are being pushed beyond their limits, with a high risk of injury. . The letter goes on to say that the charge is “abusive in nature… (and) endangers national leagues and affects the health and welfare of players.”
FIFPRO and the WLA intend to discuss their issues before the football body’s governing council at a meeting on May 17 in Bangkok, Thailand. If FIFA refuses to commit to resolving the issues, FIFPRO and the WLA will inform their members of their options, which include taking legal action against FIFA, the BBC reports in the letter.
