Manchester City midfielder Rodri has warned that footballers are nearing a strike due to the overwhelming number of games scheduled this season, which could exceed 70 matches per player. The expanded Champions League format and the inaugural Club World Cup are contributing to this fixture congestion, with Rodri stating that the optimum number of games for peak performance is between 40 and 50. He expressed concerns that the excessive workload is compromising the quality of play and highlighted the need for governing bodies to prioritize player welfare over commercial interests. Other players, including Liverpool's Alisson, have echoed similar sentiments regarding the demanding schedule. Rodri emphasized that if the situation does not improve, players may have no choice but to take action to protect their physical and mental health. The situation is under scrutiny as City prepares for its Champions League opener against Inter Milan.
