Noul calendar din fotbalul internațional, criticat de mai mulți selecționeri. O listă tot mai lungă de accidentări

International football's new calendar format, merging September and October windows into a 16-day period, faces criticism from several national team coaches due to player fatigue and injury risks. Roberto Mancini and Xavi Hernandez expressed concerns about the demanding schedule, highlighting the negative impact on players' health. Thomas Tuchel and Luis de la Fuente echoed similar sentiments, noting the increased travel and quick transitions between club and national team play. The new format, introduced in 2026, is set to remain until 2030, despite calls for a return to traditional windows that allow for more rest.
