DBasia.news – Coaching is one of the important factors behind the good or bad performance of a club.
For example, when Manchester United replaced Sir Alex Ferguson with David Moyes. With a squad that was not much different, the Red Devils were completely destroyed.
When asked who is the best coach in the world today, the answer can vary. If the benchmark is consistency, Pep Guardiola can be the answer.
However, Jurgen Klopp’s success in leading Liverpool to win the Champions League could make him the world’s best coach. Understandably, the Reds dried up achievements over the last few seasons.
Unfortunately the salary received by Jurgen Klopp is not too large. In fact, his name did not make it into the list of five coaches with the most expensive salary in 2019.
So, who are the people who carry the title? The following Bolaskor.com has summarized those who receive exorbitant salaries from the clubs they handle:
Mauricio Pochettino
Mauricio Pochettino has handled Tottenham Hotspur for five years. Unfortunately, he brought no trophies to the Lilywhites.
These conditions has made many parties wonder why Tottenham paid Pochettino expensively. The Argentinian received 8.5 million pounds per season.
Even so, they should remember the difference between Tottenham’s Pochettino era and before. Since the former Espanyol coach took office, The Lilywhites have been consistent at the top.
Zinedine Zidane
When leaving Real Madrid in 2018, Zinedine Zidane’s income was only 7.5 million euros per season. At that time, Zidane reaped success with Los Merengues.
Having missed the first half of the 2018-2019 season, Zidane returned to Real Madrid. However, this time Zidane received more fees, which is 10.5 million pounds per season.
Zidane is expected to be able to return Real Madrid to an era of glory. Understandably, the first period of successful coaching has made Los Blancos win three consecutive Champions League.
Pep Guardiola
The quality of Pep Guardiola is undoubted. He won various titles during his career in the managerial world with Barcelona, Bayern Munich, and now Manchester City.
Since coming to Manchester City in 2016, Guardiola has turned the club into one of the best teams in Europe. The proof is they successfully won the Premier League in two consecutive seasons.
No wonder Manchester City provides a large salary for Guardiola. Before extending his contract, Guardiola already receives a fee of 15.2 million pounds.
Ernesto Valverde
Currently Ernesto Valverde is under pressure at Camp Nou. Barcelona’s inconsistent performance throughout the early 2019-2020 season was the reason.
No wonder Barcelona supporters has asked for a change of coach to be made. The reason is, Valverde does not receive a small fee.
Barcelona provides a fee of 20.2 million pounds for Valverde. The amount was considered uncomparable to what was given by the former Athletic Bilbao coach.
Diego Simeone
Since Diego Simeone coached in 2011, Atletico Madrid has become a respected team in Spain and Europe. The combination of the two makes Atletico a challenger to Real Madrid and Barcelona.
During Simeone’s handling, Atletico Madrid was able to win LaLiga. In addition, two Europa League titles and one Copa del Rey which was completed twice qualified for the Champions League final.
Naturally, Atletico Madrid has paid Simeone twice the salary of Pep Guardiola at Manchester City. Currently, the Argentine coach receives 35.9 million euros per season.
