Players of Berlin "Union" refuse salaries © JumpStory

Last year, players and coaching staff of the Berlin "Union" team, who moved up to the highest league in Germany, demonstrated unity on an important issue. The club officially announced that they are temporarily giving up their salaries to help the team survive during the crisis caused by the coronavirus. "Union" has not played a match since March 13, when the Bundesliga was suspended. "Team members have worked hard in recent months to show successful results, and now they are giving up a large amount of money to overcome the crisis together. Such desires are worth the most beautiful words, and I wanted to thank them for their support," said club president Dirk Zingler. Currently, "Union" is in 11th place in the German championship.
