German coach Juergen Klopp has decided to join the list
of football stars who will cut their salaries, despite the
dispute that has arisen between the Football Association
and the English Premier League on this subject.
The newspaper “Daily Mail” said that Club informed his
club management Liverpool that he was ready to reduce
his monthly salary, until the end of the crisis of the new
Corona virus, which hit the entire global economy
severely.
Bournemouth and Brighton coaches, Eddie Howe and
Graham Potter, also announced that they had decided to
reduce their salaries voluntarily, to assist their clubs
during the crisis.
Klopp’s decision was contrary to the approach of the
players in the Premier League, who refused to reduce
their salaries by 30 percent, because they wanted the aid
to go to the health sector and not to the club heads.
But the “Premier League” coaches are not included in the
Professional Players Syndicate, which means that the
task of convincing them by clubs is much easier than
convincing the players.
Sources did not reveal the percentage of the cut that Club
will apply to his monthly salary, which amounts to $ 1.5
million.
