Premier League stars are unhappy with the four-person selection panel appointed to pick a successor to PFA chief executive Gordon Taylor, amid concerns it lacks footballing expertise.
The PFA reacted to players' demands, revealed in Sportsmail, by choosing a racially diverse and gender-balanced selection panel.
But of the four independent non-executive directors appointed earlier this week, only one has any experience of the industry — Women in Football chair Ebru Koksal.
The panel is completed by TikTok marketing chief Trevor Johnson, Amazon managing director Darren Hardman and former karate world champion Geoff Thompson — none of whom have worked in football, leading to concerns that players' views will not be represented.
