European Leagues and FIFPRO Europe are filing a joint complaint with EU antitrust regulators against FIFA's international match calendar, citing health risks for players.
Athletes and sports organisations are increasingly seeking intervention from EU antitrust regulators to challenge the dominance of governing bodies, highlighting a push for competitive balance.
FIFA claims its match calendar was approved through extensive consultations, but the joint complaint underscores tensions between football governing bodies and national leagues.
The European Commission is positioned to intervene by stopping anti-competitive practices and imposing fines on entities found in violation of EU competition laws.
