The local government confirmed that the Győri ETO women's handball team is struggling with financial problems.

The Győr municipality confirmed that its knowledge aligns with media reports regarding financial issues faced by the women's handball team. The team has reportedly asked players to agree to salary cuts, potentially reducing their pay by half and considering releasing some players. The club has not provided detailed comments, citing confidentiality in player agreements. The municipality clarified it does not own the team, which is fully owned by ETO Kft. Financial challenges may arise from the withdrawal of main sponsor Audi, whose support is uncertain due to the automotive industry's struggles. A demonstration was held in front of the Győr Audi Arena, expressing concerns over job security in the European automotive sector, attended by protesters from seven countries and featuring speeches from local officials.
