Real Madrid’s squad faces salary cuts following their humiliating loss to Barcelona, as Florentino Perez breaks down.
Coach Carlo Ancelotti and club president Florentino Perez have decided to cut all players’ weekly salaries after Real Madrid’s heartbreaking loss to Barcelona in the Copa del Rey final. According to reports, Perez said he could no longer defend giving players who don’t live up to expectations large salaries. He made it plain that any player who is not happy with the decision can leave the club this summer, and that lowering their compensation will make them take their performances more seriously.
The action represents a significant change in Real Madrid’s internal policies and the beginning of a challenging new era in which players will face consequences regardless of their reputation.
