Arsenal players reject wage cuts as coronavirus crisis stand-off continues

The Gunners have told their stars that the financial situation at the club will be grave should the season be cancelled or resumed behind closed doors

Arsenal's players have rejected the latest proposal aimed at slashing the club’s wage bill during the ongoing coronavirus crisis.

Executives and players have been attempting to secure some sort of agreement during talks over the past fortnight, which would allow the north London club to lessen their financial outlay while football is suspended in the country.

Several options have been discussed, but so far none has been met with enough approval to be put into action.
