He Leganes today will pursue a salvation that would mean a sting of about four million euros to their accounts. Blessed problem. The club agreed with its players during the darkest days of confinement, which, if maintained, would receive double the premium they agreed at the beginning of the year to be 17th. To collect the incentive, it was essential that the tournament be resumed, that the competition come to an end and that the team avoid relegation in sport, that is, not by administrative decision. In the latter case, that of a stay for cancellation of the season or similar, the group would not have received a single euro prize.
The case is that the tournament will end, so the first two premises will be fulfilled. The third, that of haggling hell, is the most complex of the equation. Yes Javier Aguirre and his boys achieved the feat, the average bonus per footballer would be around 120,000-140,000 euros compared to 55,000 they received last season. The first cucumber squad has 23 full members. All would receive the same amount except for a small group of chosen ones whose contracts do include specific bonuses for collective objectives. For the coaching staff, the award would be less, but also double what was agreed. The seven boys of the subsidiary who have joined the squad to face the rentrée would also have their share of premium.
Also, with the end of the season, and whatever the outcome, the staff will receive 100% of their salaries. In Butarque the pandemic will not leave salary cuts precisely because the competition will come to an end. If it had not been completed, all its protagonists, players and coaches would have received 86% of their chips, the percentage paid by the club to date. It is expected that in the coming days, with the end of the season, the entity will pay the remaining 14%.
The absence of scissors was a decisive factor to avoid problems with the 13 players (the majority, 12, on loan) who end the contract tomorrow. If they wanted to collect their full salary, they had to commit to playing until the end of the course.
