World2 sources1 country🔦 Under-reported48m ago
The Scottish Football Association (SFA) has proposed a new strategy to increase the amount of playing time allocated to homegrown talent. Clubs are set to vote on three distinct initiatives that aim to boost the participation of players under the age of 21 in professional matches.
The proposal introduces a system of financial incentives designed to encourage clubs to field younger players. According to the plans, the initiative may also include the implementation of penalties for clubs that do not meet the specified criteria for youth involvement.
