Gordon Taylor’s long and controversial reign as Professional Footballers’ Association chief executive will be over by the end of the season.

The 75-year-old, who has been the union’s boss since 1981, announced in March 2019 his intention to stand down when an independent review into the organisation, which began in 2018, was complete.
