August 5 – AC Milan is to guarantee automatic contract renewals for female players in the event of pregnancy during the final season of their contracts, the first club in Europe to do so.
The maternity policy for its female players and staff was created in view of a 2017 FIFPRO global study on working conditions in women’s football that found only 2% of female players interviewed across four continents had children, and 47% said they would leave football to start a family.
