Partea nevăzută a fotbalului feminin. De ce jumătate dintre jucătoarele lumii vor să renunțe definitiv

Nearly half of female footballers are considering early retirement due to financial issues and psychological pressure, according to a FIFPRO report. The study surveyed around 800 players, revealing that 59% cite financial reasons and 46% mention mental stress. While average salaries have increased, disparities remain significant, especially in Eastern Europe where many players earn below minimum wage. Only 56% of players have contracts, and mental health support is lacking. The report calls for minimum employment standards and highlights the stark contrast between the financial success of men's leagues and the struggles faced by women's football. UEFA's revenue projections show minimal investment in women's competitions.
