Levante players have once again threatened to go on strike as they seek to enforce their club officials to pay their wages. This is the second time inside a month that the Valencia-based suffering La Liga club has threatened to go on strike.

The Levante players complain that they haven’t been given wages for most of the season without any reason. The club itself are confronting serious financial trouble and are said to be on the brink of bankruptcy but the players insist that the officials pay their wages.

In the middle of April, the players’ spokesman and captain Luis Manuel Rubiales said that the would go on a strike in the weekend of April 25/25 but fortunately for Spanish football, the players didn’t carry out their warnings after a quick agreement was reached among the players, club officials, Spanish league and Valencia city hall.

But trouble has brewed once again ahead of Levante’s last match of the season in La Liga against recently crowned champions Real Madrid. The players complain that they are still to be paid the money promised and are ready to put their threat to execution. This implies that the match between Real Madrid and Levante might not go ahead this weekend.

Levante skipper Rubiales declared that he has spoken to the Real Madrid players who have sympathized with their situation. The Levante players have consistently complained that since they do not have money, their houses have been repossessed, credit cards seized, bank accounts frozen and some of them even had to sell their cars to carry out their daily chores.

Last weekend, the Levante players staged a mini protest by standing motionless just after the kick-off against Deportivo la Coruna. Levante are rock bottom in La Liga and have already been relegated to the Segunda Division.
