LONDON (Reuters) - England manager Gareth Southgate has agreed a 30% wage reduction according to British media reports after the FA's CEO Mark Bullingham said on Monday that its highest earners would take significant pay cuts during the coronavirus crisis.

The pandemic has brought English football to a standstill and Bullingham said the lack of international matches and FA Cup games will cost the country's soccer governing body around 100 million pounds.
