Professional footballers are widely opposed to the project of a World Cup every 2 years supported by Fifa. 75% of them are in fact in favor of maintaining the World Cup every four years, according to a survey carried out by the world players’ union (FIFPro) and unveiled on Tuesday February 15, 2022. FIFPro questioned more than 1,000 professional footballers at around the world regarding their wishes for the future of international calendars. ” Only 21% of players believe their voice is respected and their well-being is given sufficient consideration by international football governance “Says union general secretary Jonas Baer-Hoffmann, quoted in the FIFPro press release.
