'The PFA are making them look bad:' Danny Mills slams players' union amid calls for Premier League stars to accept 30 per cent wage cuts during coronavirus crisis

Danny Mills has criticised the PFA for their 'slow' reaction to calls for Premier League players to take pay cuts as the nation battles against the coronavirus pandemic.

The football season was brought to an unexpected halt last month due to the outbreak of coronavirus and has since been suspended indefinitely, with over 47,000 confirmed cases in the United Kingdom.

Health Secretary Matt Hancock called for top flight stars to make concessions to help alleviate pressure on the NHS, and the Premier League subsequently asked players to accept wage cuts or deferrals of up to 30 per cent.
