[Saba Sports News] According to British media, in response to Chelsea and other clubs excluding players from first-team training, the Professional Footballers’ Association (PFA) is urging authorities to regulate this practice. Shocked by the increasing trend of clubs like Chelsea doing this, the PFA is lobbying the Premier League and FIFA to strictly enforce regulations, hoping that authorities can stop this practice. Reports suggest that the PFA has been in contact with Chelsea players and their representatives, as well as other players in similar situations, to offer support. The Premier League is unable to comment on specific clubs or incidents, but upon recognizing the issue, they have expressed willingness to actively help find a solution to prevent the situation from escalating. The PFA is actively pushing for a proper resolution to the issue of players being excluded from first-team squads and believes that such situations should be prevented in the Premier League and lower leagues. It is understood that the PFA has been working behind the scenes on this issue for many years, and insiders are unhappy with how prevalent this situation is in professional leagues.
