The Covid-19 pandemic has reduced the flow of money from clubs and adjusted wages
Mexicans Diego Lainez and Andrés Guardado will have a salary reduction with Betis from Spain due to the financial crisis that the team is going through the Covid-19 pandemic and that has made the flow of money in clubs smaller.
According to “El Desmarque”, the Betic team agreed with the team a new salary reduction, this after suffering a first reduction during the quarantine lived a few months ago and while the players were at home.
The Verdiblanco team stopped receiving regular revenues of about 21 million dollars and among the most important was the sale of tickets to the Benito Villamarín stadium.
“The heliopolitan entity will be able to save a very significant amount in salaries to meet the budget, reached after losing more than 20 million euros of regular income, mainly due to the absence of the public in stadiums,” says the press.
The players who will have to find a solution to this problem are those who conclude their contract next summer, because the elements with a longer contract will be able to recover part of the money in payments in installments, reallocations and future renewals.
In the same way, the media pointed out that the footballers preferred to be the “sacrifices” in the face of the crisis that the club is experiencing and all in order so that the team’s employees and the administrative part do not suffer a reduction in staff.
