Recently, the issue of an overloaded schedule has increasingly been raised by footballers, who are even willing to go on strike to draw attention to the problem. However, not everyone supports such radical measures.
Details: Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti acknowledged that players are indeed asking for more rest, and they are even prepared to accept a reduction in wages if it means fewer matches.
Quote:"I repeat what I said a few days ago: football needs some reflection. The goal is to play less to avoid injuries. The players don’t mind a salary cut if it means they’ll be playing less," Ancelotti was quoted by Football Espana.
Reminder: Earlier, the Italian coach suggested introducing short breaks following international match windows. The idea of a player strike was initially proposed by Manchester City midfielder Rodri, later supported by Real Madrid defender Dani Carvajal.
