And through his official Facebook page, the prominent Saudi official said: “Who will pay a player who pays in millions, renews by millions or contracts with millions ?! In light of the global crisis now, that has become a thing of the past.

Then he added, saying: “There are no rewarding sponsorships, no rewarding television broadcasts, no match tickets, no ads! In my opinion, the drop will exceed 50% سأ … I will remind you soon. “

The sports industry was severely affected by the Corona virus pandemic, as several international clubs such as Barcelona and Real Madrid had to cut wages due to the epidemic and lack of income.

Turki Al-Sheikh owns Almería, which operates in the Spanish second division and previously owned the Egyptian Pyramids Club, but sold his stake to an Emirati businessman.

Al-Sheikh had posted an earlier post on his Facebook page in which he hoped the world of football would be different after the Corona virus pandemic that hit everyone, and emphasized that football will take many years to achieve what managed until 2019.

However, the Saudi official excluded his club Almería from the economic problems that affect international clubs due to La Coruña.

Turki Al-Sheikh is reported to have refused to cut the salaries of Almería players despite the Corona pandemic.
