As the suspension of leagues prolonged and the club faced management difficulties, the atmosphere of 'reducing wages for players' is spreading.

Barcelona and Atletico Madrid players in Spain said they would cut 70% of their wages, while Italian Juventus players gave up their pay for four months.

In addition, more and more clubs are joining, such as Bayern Munich in Germany.

Among them, the PFA, the world's highest salary player association, has stood at the center of criticism after opposing wage cuts.

PFA President Taylor sent a message to the players, ordering them not to agree to the wage cut.

Fans continued to blame, and even the British Health Minister publicly scolded.

[Matt Hancock / Ministry of Health, UK: The first thing players can do is donate.

They have to cut their wages to play their part.] The British Parliament also suggested that players must tax their unearned income.

The pressure has increased, and Premier League shareholders have agreed to discuss plans to cut player wages by up to 25%, but the Athletes' Association still stands.
