Corona's war, Barcelona's decision to cut players' salaries by 70%
Spanish football club Barcelona has decided to cut the salaries of its players by 70% due to the Corona virus. Like other sports, the football sector is in crisis. In such a situation, the Spanish football club Barcelona decided to cut the salaries of its billionaire players by 70%, so the players got angry.
Barcelona pay their players millions of pounds a week in match fees. Superstar Lionel Messi receives 500,000 a week, Antonio Griezmann 294,000 a week, Louis Sarez and Gerard Pique 290,000 a week.
The cancellation of football events has led to a significant drop in the club's earnings.
Athletes have also quarantined themselves in their homes. Barcelona club management says they have made the decision temporarily, but the players do not seem to accept the decision. The Spanish parliament has allowed the government to tighten public housing measures and keep businesses closed until April 11, amid a steady rise in casualties.
