Coaches with the Biggest Income in the World

DBasia.news –  Player price inflation affects the income of players and coaches in Europe. This can be seen from Matthijs de Ligt who received a salary of 21.6 million pounds per year. The big salary was also received by the coach.

No different from players, the world’s top coaches also get increasingly spectacular fees. The difference with players, the coach is still easily ejected from his job. In other words, the coach is the most brutal job in the world of football.

However, with increasing salaries, the coach has little security because he will receive large compensation if fired. Of course, until now only a handful of coaches have been paid well.

There are interesting things related to the coach’s salary. If most players receive high fees from big European clubs, the source of money for coaches is from the Bamboo Curtain Country, China.

Of the 20 coaches with the highest salary last season, four handled clubs from China. Dragan Stojkovic, Guangzhou R & F coach receives 6 million pounds per year. Vitor Pereira (Shanghai SIPG, 6.4 million pounds), Marcello Lippi (China national team, 11.2 million pounds), and Fabio Cannavaro (Guangzhou Evergrande, 12.9 million pounds).

Talking about high-paid coaches is certainly not legitimate if you don’t mention several figures who have carried the most expensive titles. Starting from Sir Alex Ferguson.

The legendary manager of Manchester United is not known in detail what the salary is. But in 2010, Ferguson revealed at that time he received a higher payment from players at United. At that time, the highest-paid player was Wayne Rooney 9.5 million per year. This means that Ferguson received more than that number.

Still, in the same era, there is Arsene Wenger. The Frenchman received 17.6 million pounds in his final year in charge of Arsenal.

But the number received by the two legendary coaches is still inferior to the trainers currently on the top five coaches with the highest fees below.

1. Diego Simeone

Yes, the title of the highest-paid coach in the world does belong to Diego Simeone.

Although his achievements are not as attractive as Pep Guardiola, Jose Mourinho, or Sir Alex Ferguson, the coach nicknamed El Cholo is paid 35 million pounds per year.

2. Jose Mourinho

• 

Unlike Henry, no one is surprised that Jose Mourinho’s name is on the list of coaches with the highest salary. The row of trophies he achieved was the reason.

When training Manchester United, the Portuguese coach received 26.6 million pounds per week. However, Mourinho was sacked in December 2018.

3. Thierry Henry

• 

Interestingly, Thierry Henry’s name is on the list. However, this former Barcelona and Arsenal attacker did receive a high fee when selected by AS Monaco.

Although only handling the club in 20 games, Henry was tied to a contract with a salary of 21.9 million pounds per year. Henry himself was fired because he was considered a failure.

4. Pep Guardiola

Not a few who judge Guardiola is the biggest coach at this time. He always records success wherever he is on duty. Starting from Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich, to Manchester City.

The coach, known for his possession-based playing style, has 20.6 million pounds per year from Manchester City.

5. Ernesto Valverde

• 

The emergence of Valverde’s name as a coach with the fifth-highest fee is somewhat unsurprising considering he worked for a club as big as Barcelona.

The former Sevilla coach received a fee of 19.7 million per year from Barcelona. Valverde’s contract will expire on June 2020.

For comparison, Zinedine Zidane, who coached Real Madrid, received 10.8 million pounds.
