Sides meet in Spanish footballing dispute, as strike looms
The Spanish Professional Footballers’ Union (AFE) and Liga de Futbol Profesional (LFP) have begun their latest meeting in a bid to find a solution to avert strike action for the opening two rounds of the new Spanish season.
The AFE announced last week that players from the top two divisions would go on strike for the first two weeks of the 2011/12 season – scheduled to begin this weekend – unless an agreement with the LFP was reached over the issue of unpaid wages.
