History
A multinational voice for football players, since 1965.
While national player unions had been around before (including the PFA in England, which was established in 1907), FIFPRO was the first to bring multiple player unions together under one umbrella in December 1965. The organisation was founded in Paris by representatives of the unions from Netherlands, England, Scotland, France and Italy. From those small beginnings, FIFPRO expanded and developed in the following decades, becoming what it is today - a body which represents 65,000 professional footballer players from all around the world.
