HÀ NỘI — The Nam Định team have agreed to take a salary cut as the V.League 1 2020 is delayed indefinitely due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

According to the decision reached during a meeting of the club on Tuesday, all team members will receive a 25 per cent pay cut.

All members of the training board (except fitness specialist Nils Haccke) and married players will be allowed to take a break to return to their families and practise at home starting from March 31.

Meanwhile, young unmarried players will stay at the team headquarters, according to Nam Định provincial Professional Football Training Centre. They are strictly forbidden from going out and will train with Haccke.

Earlier, HCM City also agreed to reduce salaries to share the burden with the team leadership. — VNS
