Rio Ferdinand has claimed players are “tired and disillusioned” with football authorities' lack of action on racism.
Former England defender Ferdinand is one of the most powerful voices in the game and he believes it is time for players to come together to take a stand. Ferdinand was invited to a Premier League board meeting last week to address the issue and warned football is not doing enough - and the players have had enough.
Ex-Manchester United star Ferdinand, who has made a powerful new Amazon documentary on the subject, believes players should set up their own action group and even follow the NBA’s basketball stars in the United States by going on strike.
