“Clubs should secure the salaries of those who need them to make ends meet”

The coronavirus crisis is having a strong impact in all areas of society and many clubs are analyzing how it will affect them in economic terms. Words like ERTE or salary reductions are planned in the environment and Rayo's coach, Paco Jémez, expressed his opinion in this regard. “All clubs, in an exercise in bravery, seriousness and intelligence, should ensure the wages of workers who need it to make ends meet.. Then, players and coaching staff would be watching, “he said in 'El Larguero'.

Rayo's coach also emphasized the importance of these workers in the day-to-day operations of the entities. “I speak to many of my club and they are restless. Their salaries give them life and, within what is a club budget, they are peccata minuta. The rest we will see later. No one is going to fault or demand their entire contract. They can take away what you have not worked, something that would seem to me to a certain extent fair“, argument.

Paco Jémez also confirmed that both he and his closest circle “is fine”, although he lives this whole situation with “quite a lot of concern”. The coach explained that He has spoken with his players, to whom they have provided a training schedule and supplied stationary bikes so that they can exercise. during his confinement at home. Something insufficient to maintain optimal shape. Hence, advocating for “a kind of preseason” if the competition resumes.

Right now the future is unknown and nobody knows if LaLiga will be able to conclude, although Paco is in favor of ending it, as long as that does not entail any risk. “I would love for the competition to end, even if it was in August and we ran out of holidays. Of course, as long as everyone's health has been ensured, “said the coach, who cannot find a fair solution to the hypothetical scenario of ending the season: “Start from scratch or end like this, whatever you do, you are going to take cakes everywhere because there will always be victims”.
