'Not one step has been taken': Premier League accused of failing to protect academy players 🔴 samcunningham reports for iPaperSport
Many parents and former players do not consider it appropriate that the onus is placed on teenage players to contact the relevant staff member if mental health support is required.
“A safeguarding officer employed by a club is a conflict of interest,” Noble said. “If they’re working for the club, how can they also be working to protect the player from the club? They must be independent. The Premier League runs training programmes for players released at 16 years old – before earning a scholarship – and for those aged 18 to 23 who may have signed professional contracts but were eventually let go.
“Where will be 18 months from now?” Noble said. “Hopefully the Premier League, PFA, FA and other governing bodies will do more to finally put to an end the pain caused to these rejected children.”
