The situation is tense between the players and the management of FC Barcelona. While the former refused to lower their wages and were preparing to send a letter to Josep Maria Bartomeu expressing their displeasure the latter, including the main president, could be ousted in the next elections.
And a new imbroglio is created between some players and the Catalan leaders. According to Mundo Deportivo, Kike Saverio, Chumi, Sergi Puig and Guillem Jaime have sent an appeal to the Association of Spanish Footballers (AFE) to claim bonuses that have not been paid. The bonus of 10,000 euros was to be paid at the end of last season to reward the reserve team’s qualification for the play-offs to move up to the top division.
