What you should know

Monitoring

The international match calendar, competition reforms and travel demands, among other aspects of a player's professional life, can have a damaging effect on health, wellbeing and career prospects. FIFPRO monitors the workload of footballers through the FIFPRO Player Workload Monitoring (PWM) platform.

Research

FIFPRO is the only organisation that regularly carries out global research into the daily lives of men's and women's professional footballers, tracking everything from salaries and vacation time to mental health and cartilage damage.

Foresight

We can not achieve progress by working alone; we need to work together. Only by listening to experts in fields both within and outside of football can we collectively achieve better results.
