Women's football was on an unprecedented high after last year's World Cup, but the recent pandemic now threatens clubs and players
FIFPro has warned women's football could be facing an "almost existential threat" because of the coronavirus pandemic.
The world players' union says extra efforts are required to sustain the women's game, explaining careers were "fragile at best, and short and sporadic in nature" even before Covid-19 hit.
With the toll of the global health crisis, FIFPro says the situation is more worrying than ever, pointing out the average player contract lasts just one year in women's football.
