Inter Milan owners Suning are struggling to secure fresh finance for the club.
Corriere dello Sport says Suning need the €250-270m to complete their payments until June 30 and plan for next season.
Inter's finances have been 'devastated' by the closure of stadiums to all supporters since last summer.
Inter president Steven Zhang is now speaking to players about surrendering two months' wages.
Inter would save €35 million before tax if their players agreed to the cuts and this would be hugely helpful in Suning's quest to stabilise the club's finances.
