Ozil's has been receiving massive criticism from various parties the latest being Piers Morgan 1, after Ozil along with a very few Arsenal players refused the new 12.5% pay cut proposed by the club 2, The players initially rejected the trending 30% pay cut and the 12.5% cut is the lowest I've read about from a club and I believed shouldn't have been a problem for any of the players, at least not the club's highest paid player.

Though I think this is for the common good against covid-19 and a 12.5% salary reduction is low for world-class soccer players, of course Ozil will be a criticism of many people because of the decline in salary because there is no generosity towards humans who are in crisis when this.

I think there are still many players who agree with the salary reduction because they know that difficult situations like this are indeed experienced by everyone so we have to do the best we can.
