the world Economy styrtbløder as a result of coronavirussen.
Why must all take responsibility and help where you can, and the highly paid Premier League players are no exception.
It writes Reuters.
Therefore, the british health minister, Matt Hancock, has been out with a call to the rich football players:
“I think everyone has a responsibility to help in this situation, and the same applies to Premier League players,” he says, and coming with a concrete bid:
“The first thing they can do is to make a contribution by going down in salary.”
the Invitation from the minister of health comes after players in several big clubs as the Italian Juventus and Spanish FC Barcelona has gone down in wages.
Matthew hancock’s call for the Premier League-the players are backed up by Julian Knight, chairman of the uk parliamentary digital-, culture-, media-, and sportskomité.
“We are faced with a difficult situation, where the top players, who do not work, continues to receive many thousands of pounds every week, while the it staff that keeps the club alive, lose wages,” he says.
If nothing happens, they will interfere politically, says Julian Knight.
“If the Premier League will not act to resolve this crisis, the government must step in to impose on clubs a significant financial penalty in order to show those who are hardest hit on the economy.”
Professional football in Britain suspended up to 30. april.
