🚨 Sources from UEFA and the Spanish Federation explained to @elespanolcom that Messi personally was negotiating with UEFA President Ceferin about the urgent need to create a fund that would guarantee the payment of part of the salaries of players who were greatly affected during the pandemic period.
🗣️ Leo Messi explained to UEFA: “I would rather not get anything if there is no money to help others.”
Setting up a fund of this type is perfectly legal. FIFA agreed with FIFPRO, the international union of professional football players, and established a similar fund a few weeks before the pandemic period to pay the players’ arrears and their dues. 🔗🇪🇸
