BRUSSELS -- On Monday, in a nondescript conference room on the east side of Belgium's capital, the raging battle over player workload took a turn into the legal arena.
The amount of football demanded of top players has been one of the hottest topics in the game in recent seasons, with players and coaches repeatedly urging organisers to condense the schedule and allow players more rest.
Last month, the debate went further, with Manchester City star and Spain international Rodri saying players are "close" to going on strike over the issue.
