Barcelona players take 70% pay cut – Guillem Balague explains

Real Madrid are expected to follow suit

Barcelona's playing squad have agreed to a temporary 70 per cent pay cut as the coronavirus continues to hit even the biggest of businesses. The players will of course not exactly be struggling on their temporary wage, and have pledged to donate a further 2% to ensure that the low paid staff are paid their full wage during their time off work.
