(Reuters) -Natalie Washington, a British transgender woman who plays women's football, said the Football Association’s move to ban trans women from the sport could force many transgender women out of football completely.
Washington, who is also the campaign lead for the group Football v Transphobia, said returning to men's football would be potentially unsafe and mentally challenging.
