West Ham players will defer a percentage of their salaries to help the club during the coronavirus crisis, while manager David Moyes and vice-chairman Karren Brady will take a 30 per cent pay cut.

In a number of measures announced on Friday, the club said joint-chairmen David Gold and David Sullivan are joining fellow shareholders to inject £30m into the club to ensure stability during football's shutdown.

Gold and Sullivan, who have not taken a salary or dividend throughout their 10 years at the Club, are deferring interest payments on shareholder loans, the club said.
