FORMER Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger believes footballers have almost reached the peak of their physical capabilities and that improving decision-making will be the next frontier for the sport.

LEADING neuropathologist Dr Willie Stewart says football should be “ashamed” of its management of head injuries following the English game’s first concussion substitution on Tuesday.

ARSENE WENGER, Fifa’s new Head of Global Football Development, has launched a Talent Development Programme designed to close the gap between Europe and the rest of the world.

FIFA is launching a new system it hopes will “change the way we understand monitoring data”.

FIFA stakeholders have backed ‘groundbreaking’ transfer reforms that include a limit on the number of loans teams can make.

A Fifa task force has proposed that clubs be limited to loaning six to eight players because the current system can result in “stockpiling” and “sometimes prevents young players from fully developing their talent”.
