Infantino and Wenger meet PFA but biennial World Cup was ‘not the main topic’
January 21 – With increasing demands placed on football’s elite players, FIFA president Gianni Infantino has vowed player welfare will be a top priority as the organisation reshapes the international fixture schedule.
FIFA’s proposal for a biennial World Cup has drawn widespread criticism amid concerns over burn-out and Infantino discussed the issue Thursday after accepting an invitation from England’s Professional Footballers’ Association (PFA) to meet leading players and union representatives.
The session included PFA chief executive Maheta Molango and FIFA chief of global football development Arsene Wenger who is driving the biennial proposal.
