In March this year, we outlined our #StopOnlineAbuse action plan to ensure we are fulfilling our responsibility to protect our players and our diverse global family.
We are encouraged by the level of support we have received from our fans and the work being done by the wider football community to stamp out online abuse. However, it’s clear from recent events and the findings from the PFA study released last week that online abuse remains a stain on our game that we must continue to fight with all our collective power.
Since we launched our #StopOnlineAbuse action plan we have been working hard behind the scenes internally and with the relevant stakeholders and authorities to take further action.
