Barcelona Players 'Are Angry with Joan Laporta'

There's more unsettlement at Barcelona after president Joan Laporta criticised players for not taking a salary cut, according to a report.

The Catalan side have been hit by major financial struggles off the field and had to rush to register their summer signings as they struggled with Financial Fair Play limitations. 

Laporta used a Members' Assembly to ask the likes of Frenkie De Jong and other senior players to reduce their salaries, and, according to Helena Condis via Cope, several of the club's stars, including Sergio Busquets and Gerard Pique, are said to have taken exception to the 60-year-old's comments.

Players such as Gerard Pique and Jordi Alba have publicly taken salary reductions to help the club, with board members having to cut their pay so the club could register summer signing Jules Kounde in LaLiga.
