Elche players have not gone to train at the Martínez Valero stadium, as planned, as a measure of protest by the Temporary Employment Regulation File (ERTE) that the club applied to sports personnel with a 70% job reduction.
The footballers were summoned to the stadium in the morning to undergo medical tests, although it was subsequently communicated by the club that they would carry out the tests at home and the subsequent training session at their homes.
The team's coach, José Rojo 'Pacheta' , was in charge of transferring the players' decision to the club, whose discomfort was already evident weeks ago. The footballers, like other professional soccer teams, have proposed to the club a salary reduction, but not an ERTE, but their offer was not accepted by the leaders of the entity.
The general director, Patricia Rodríguez , admitted this week that a new agreement was still being negotiated and that a new offer had been made to the players, whose response was not to hold the session in the stadium.
The footballers argue that the time they spend moving around and training in the stadium exceeds their time when applying a reduction in working hours, so they have unilaterally agreed, after informing the coaching staff, not to exercise this Wednesday.
