In times of crisis, some communities resort to barter. Now Spanish football teams might too.

La Liga President Javier Tebas says he expects the country’s clubs to consider more direct swaps of players instead of big transfer payments, as they try to cope with the economic impact of the coronavirus crisis.

"The transfer market will be subdued. It is clear that there will be fewer direct cash transactions. There will be more player swaps," Tebas told reporters in a videoconference on Thursday.

He said he did not expect the Spanish league's transfer market to move more than €800 million, compared to €3 billion last summer.
