Real Madrid's players coaches and "main directors" will take a pay cut of 10-20% this year as the club deals with the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.

Football in Spain has been suspended indefinitely since March when the country declared a state of emergency.

Real said the decision to reduce pay was "taken by players coaches and employees" to avoid "traumatic measures that affect the rest of the workers".

The club's basketball team have also agreed voluntary pay cuts.
