Barca players would be giving up huge amounts of money if they are force to take a 70% pay cut.
Messi is on the highest wage at Barcelona, earning £500,000-per-week.
He would lose £350,000-per-week if these measures were put in place.
Griezmann would be giving up £205,800-per-week, while Suarez would lose out on £203,000-per-week.
Of course, Barca's players would still be on big wages regardless of whether they take a cut or not. But it's easy to see why they are reluctant to give up on so much money.
