Football clubs in United Kingdom are in highlight after ex players revealed how they were sexually harassed at young age by those who were entrusted to teach them football. Though this is not the first time that players have came forward to reveal the corrupt environment in these clubs.

The authorities have said that we are investigating them, which include some past events while some are recent incidents. But questions are being raised on the investigation because some years ago a coach was jailed for just 6 years after 23 offences were proven in court.
These revelations are coming after 21 years of the first revelation, when a coach linked with Manchester United was found guilty of raping a boy and sexually assaulting others, he was imprisoned for only four years.
