Tony Kroos seeded the controversy this week after publishing some his words in which it refused the cuts salariales as a result of the coronavirus. "A descent of wage is like a donation in vain or for the club. I am in favour that it pay the complete wage and that each one do wise things with him. To all asks them that they help where was necessary, and there are a lot of places where is necessary", signalled for a podcast of SWR Sport.

These statements raised a lot of ampollas and caused that many took advantage of the situation to call him insolidario. Players of the FC Barcelona or of the Athletic of Madrid had decided to go down 70% the wages for the sake of his clubs and his words did not come to tale. Besides, the press informed that the Real Madrid was negotiating also a reduction with his footballers, by what this opinion had less felt still.

Luckily, it seems that all could have been a misunderstanding, since this Thursday the own midfield player germano has commissioned of matizar his words. After knowing and oficializarse the discount salarial of the players of the Madrid, that will win 20% less in the case to cancel the competitions and 10% if regresean, the one of Greifswald has quierido explain. The ex of the Bayern has left clear that yes is in favour of the cuts in the case to help to workers of the own club.

Using his official account of Twitter, the German has cleared all and has commanded an indirect to which translated or interpreted his words. "It is possible that have not translated properly or that some do not want to understand it. From the first moment, my opinion, well know me, is this: If we can help to workers and areas in the Club see logical to renounce to part of our wage, something that has been able to check today", said, in reference to the announcement of the Madrid.

After this explanation, the mediocampista seems that it does the peaces with the fans of the Madrid and with the fans to the football in general. With all what is happening, put in extreme measured doubt like these was very out of place. The clubs are without income from does a month and this has done that they wobble all the teams of the world. The players with wages so astronomical had to give example and gives the impression that they have done it.

Changes in the world of the football

In the interview in which Kroos spoke of the cuts, also referred to how could change the world of the football by fault of the coronavirus. This is something of what every time is speaking more and that it could carry to the clubs to pose discounts salariales on a long-term basis. "It is questionable if some sums of money still can pay. I think that they will arise a lot of problems. Some more, others less. Maybe this was not badly because all put in an a bit extreme level" reflexionó.
