Top professional rugby players in Wales have agreed to take a 25 percent pay cut for three months as the coronavirus pandemic continues.

The Welsh Rugby Union Professional Rugby Board and Welsh Rugby Players' Association have announced that any players earning over 25,000 pounds a year will take a 25 percent pay cut for the next three months.

The players' salary cut is in line with cuts for the WRU executive and staff members above a certain threshold.

Welsh Rugby Union Professional Rugby Board Chair Amanda Blanc acknowledged the agreement would not have been an easy one to come to for the players.
