British footballers in the United States are at risk of being stripped of their visas amid a coronavirus pay dispute.
A host of UK born players plying their trade in the United Soccer League (USL) - America's second tier - are facing increasingly uncertain futures as division chiefs try to enforce huge pay cuts of up to 80 per cent.
Former Everton midfielder Jose Baxter and Jack Barmby - son of former England international Nick - are among the players caught in the middle of the dispute.
The USL players union (USPLA) and league chiefs are in the talks over wage reductions designed to safeguard the divisions future through the Covid-19 financial crisis.
