German media reported yesterday that Bayern Munich players and other German clubs have agreed to reduce their salaries, in order to help their officials cope with the financial crisis caused by the emerging Corona virus.
The most popular newspaper "Bild" in Germany wrote that the players and members of the administrative and executive boards of Bayern Munich, the leader of the Bundesliga, confirmed their willingness to give up 20% of their salaries.
The value of the salaries paid by Bayern Munich, which includes a starry squad, last season, 336.2 million euros. The newspaper pointed out that Borussia Monchengladbach players were the first to automatically suggest reducing salaries in Germany, followed by Werder Bremen and Schalke players, adding that negotiations are ongoing with Borussia Dortmund players and Bayer Leverkusen.
And she added that Borussia Dortmund coach Lucien Favre himself offered to reduce his salary, noting that the club expects to reduce the salaries of players by 20% if the matches do not resume, and 10% if they are resumed without an audience, given that the clubs in this case obtain the rights to broadcast TV .
