Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger believes FIFA must reorganise the international schedule in order to avoid a conflict with major clubs which could lead to a breakaway.

Per Adrian Kajumba in the Mirror, Wenger thinks now is the perfect time to address the issue of fixture congestion as FIFA reviews its practices amid widespread corruption allegations:
We face a situation where it’s impossible for the players to get through a season and have rest.
