Gelsenkirchen. Corona’s mandatory break hits FC Schalke 04 hard. Due to the financial threat, the club has to save everywhere to stay solvent.
Now the club is taking another drastic step. After the partial exemption from the professionals’ salaries, there are apparently no more payments.
FC Schalke 04 cancels player awards
As “Bild” reports, S04 sporting director Jochen Schneider has now negotiated another savings deal with professionals. When the Bundesliga starts again, players give up a third of the special bonuses that would normally be paid if the team achieved certain successes.
The payment of another third will be postponed so that the club has more money available immediately after Corona’s recess. The new deal means in concrete terms: Even if Schalke plays a successful remaining season, the club will continue to save and will not go bankrupt thanks to numerous bonuses.
The new agreement is the next drastic step in Schalke’s extreme austerity. The club had previously mutually reduced the salaries of professionals and top employees. In addition, fans were asked to refrain from refunding ticket prices; Sponsors and partners should keep their VIP seats reserved.
