Gary Lineker has warned against a 'judgemental pile-on' on footballers who have not taken a pay cut during the coronavirus crisis after Matt Hancock urged them to 'play their part'.
The former England striker and Match of the Day host believes that Premier League stars should not be vilified yet and said: ''I think a lot of footballers will do something'.
But he did blast his former club Spurs - one of four clubs who have furloughed non-playing staff, who will now be paid 80 per cent of their salary up to £2,500-a-month by the taxpayer when their stars remain on lucrative deals worth millions of pounds a year.
