Premier League clubs have all agreed to discuss their players taking wage cuts or deferrals of up to 30 per cent wage after their latest round of talks today.

As exclusively revealed by Mail Online today, Manchester United became the first top flight club to slash their salaries, sacrificing 30 per cent of their wages for one month with the understanding that it will go to hospitals and health centres throughout Manchester in the fight against Coronavirus.
