After a long negotiation, the representative organization of football players worldwide, FIFPro, of which the Portuguese Players’ Union is a member, celebrated a landmark agreement with FIFA, applicable for the next six years.
The new cooperation agreement with FIFA, since the first one in 2006, strengthens FIFPro role as a worldwide players’ representative in a near future. With the signing of this deal, issues like unpayment salaries and several abusive treatments to the players, such as placing football players to train in solitary from the rest of the team, will have more hard penalties.
