Levante Low

IT'S a shame Banega hasn't signed for city rivals Levante as the cash-strapped strugglers could have made a fortune selling copies of the tape.

Morale is at an all-time low with the club stuck at the foot of La Liga and players still owed weeks of unpaid wages.

President Pedro Villarroel is public enemy No.1 in the dressing-room after sending a text message to some stars in November warning they wouldn't receive any money if they spoke out about the club's problems.

But Levante's farcical finances are now public knowledge and gate receipts for their next home game with Real Madrid will be seized thanks to a court order.
