Juventus Players and Coach Will Give Up 4 Months' Salary


Juventus footballers and Coach Maurizio Sarri have reached an agreement with the club to reduce their wages by an amount equal to the monthly salaries of March, April, May and June 2020. The decision was made following the suspension of Serie A and European competitions to limit the infection with coronavirus and to meet society at an economically complicated time: cutting wages will save 90 million Euros. The press release also explains that "in the coming weeks individual agreements with members will be finalized, as required by current regulations".

If the competitions of the season resume, any additions to the fees will be negotiated. Juventus is the first Italian Serie A team to have found an agreement of this type to reduce fees.
