Hapoel Tel Aviv's management decided to remove the team players to the USSR. After offering players a 50% cut and no answer, the Reds decided to make the difficult move due to the spread of the Corona virus. Hapoel is in fact the first big team to make the move since leaving the league. Bright.

The club's statement reads: "Just before the outbreak of the epidemic, while the team's players sit with the club's management for distributing grants for their professional achievements, grants that are not included in their contracts, the league's activities have been suspended for an unspecified time. Faced with the line of law and despite the huge losses we incurred due to the cessation of activity, We have offered the team players an outline to cut their wages over the next three months, an outline that will allow them to be paid without jeopardizing the very existence of the club. "



The statement read: "We were surprised that until this moment, the players' response was not received, which is interpreted as a refusal of the outline proposed to them. We do not know what is behind their decision. Either the team players have information that we do not know about the development of the disease and its future implications - or that this is a fundamental lack of understanding. The new situation that we all face, a worker's decision that refuses wages that are 3 times higher than the average wage in the economy, while Israel is in isolation and a large part of it goes into the unemployment circle and faces difficulties in living, is at least unintelligible. All the club players for the squadron.

We hope that next season and the one after that, there will be some of the players who will sign a contract where he will earn what he is fighting for now. In our humble opinion, the State of Israel and Israeli football in particular, are heading for an easy time. Under our baseline assumptions, next year's football teams' budgets will drop significantly. Hoping for better days and best wishes for all the people of Israel. "
