Professional Footballers' Association claims proposals for a 30% pay cut for Premier League players can be detrimental. PFA urged the league to increase its own £20m donation pledge. Premier League wants footballers to agree on a 30% salary cut to protect jobs amid the coronavirus pandemic. But PFA says this move equates to more than £500m in wage reductions, and a loss in tax contributions of more than £200m to UK.
