“From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank all the Women Premier League clubs, Premier League clubs, Division One League clubs, Regional Football Associations and all constituent bodies for your undiluted support behind this mission.
“The pledge as we have shown today is that we are firmly committed to develop football, we invite everybody believes in this vision and has the right level of skill set and everybody who is committed and willing to be part of this agenda.
