Premier League teams are facing a major economic crisis created since the outbreak of the Corona virus. Now that some (Hapoel Hadera, Betar Jerusalem and other groups) have already cut their wages and staff, it seems that this is only the beginning.

Club leaders intend to initiate a cut across all league teams. The big burden is the salary of the players and one of the proposals that she makes is where players will be cut according to their salary. At the moment, we have an idea where high-wage players will cut at least 20 percent of their wages when the lower the salary, the higher the cut.

It is important to note that at this time, clubs such as Maccabi Tel Aviv, Maccabi Haifa and Hapoel Bnei Hasharon have not affected players' wages and are awaiting developments regarding the return of the league. At this point, it is about resuming games in May and ending the season in June, but that also depends on slowing down the corona's spread and returning to a relative routine. It is currently too early to determine whether this will be the case. In light of these, club leaders will make an online meeting via video calls and make a decision.
