The management of the football club "Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya" of Iraq has made the decision to reduce player salaries by 25%. This was done due to the crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which seriously affected the club's financial situation.
The official statement of the club reads: "Unfortunately, due to the circumstances related to the pandemic, we have to implement unpopular measures to maintain the financial sustainability of the club. We are forced to reduce player salaries by 25%."
This decision has caused discontent among the footballers, who are planning to appeal to the club management to reconsider this decision. They expressed concern for their financial well-being and are ready to find a compromise solution that would take into account the interests of all parties.
However, the management of "Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya" insists on the need to implement reductions and justifies this difficult situation of the club. They emphasized that this temporary measure is aimed at preserving the club during a challenging period and are ready to reassess the situation in the future depending on financial conditions.
