PFA bosses have accused football’s authorities of “failing to prioritise player safety” after Leeds defender Robin Koch was “put at risk.”
The Professional Footballers’ Association have called for temporary concussion substitutes to be introduced as a matter of urgency following Koch’s head injury in Leeds’ defeat to Manchester United on Sunday.
Koch was bandaged up and allowed to play on after a clash of heads with United’s Scott McTominay in the 13th minute believing it was a gash. But Koch was eventually taken off in the 31st minute and Leeds have now confirmed they are treating it as a concussion injury.
