Salaries: here are the top 10 best paid coaches in the world!
Football players aren't the only ones with huge salaries. Here are the 10 coaches so well paid you'll want to become one of them!
N°10 : Hansi Flick (Bayern Munich)
Entirely unknown to the general audience just a year ago, Hansi Flick has enjoyed an absolutely crazy 2020. Having become head coach for Bayern Munich, he quite clearly put the Bavarian club at the very top of Europe by winning the championship, the German Cup, the Champions League and the UEFA Supercup. Under his leadership, Bayern has once again become the invincible steamroller, as evidenced by the great victory over Barça 8-2 in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
Salary: 7.2 million pounds a year
N°9 : Carlo Ancelotti (Everton FC)
Recruited by Everton in December 2019 to make Everton into a new Premier League giant, the Italian quickly won over English fans. The start of the 2020-2021 season has even been near-perfect for the Toffees, who had long been in the lead, before somewhat falling in line in recent weeks...
Salary: 7.2 million pounds a year
N°8 : Jurgen Klopp (Liverpool FC)
Jurgen Klopp brought back the England championship trophy to a people that had been waiting for it for 30 years. For this, he became one of the greatest heroes of Liverpool. On the way to earn the championship once again - though the season is more difficult and trying for the Reds, Klopp has made himself one of the best coaches in the world.
Salary: 7.7 million pounds a year
N°7 : Antonio Conte (Inter Milan)
Coaching for Inter Milan since 2019, Antonio Conte's mission is to bring the Milan club back on top of Italian and European football.
Salary: 9.9 million pounds a year
N°6 : Zinédine Zidane (Real Madrid)
Just a few weeks ago, the former n°10 of the Blues was in a precarious position following poor results in the Champions League or in the championship. Since then, the triple winner of the LDC on the bench of the Merengues has managed to turn the tide thanks to his know-how... or maybe thanks to his top-secret method.
Salary: 11 million pounds a year
N°5 : Fabio Cannavaro (Guangzhou Evergrande Taobao)
The former captain of Squadra Azzura, 2006 world champion, is one of those legendary player who chose to embrace the coaching career. Following a short experience as a coach for China, since 2014 he's been a coach for the Guangzhou Evergrande club.
Salary: 11 million pounds a year
N°4 : Rafael Benitez (Dalia Yifang)
Having been with Newcastle, Liverpool, Chelsea and even Real Madrid, Rafael Benitez certainly has one the finest track records in current football. Since 2019, the Spaniard has enjoyed the chinese championship, a destination often described as a gilded retirement plan for players and coaches...
Salary: 12.1 million pounds a year
N°3 : Diego Simeone (Atletico Madrid)
Barça may be experiencing a vey serious financial crisis, as well as having to manage the Lionel Messi situation, whose wishes are no longer a mystery, and the fact that Real Madrid is not always in great shape; but Atletico Madrid fully intends to take advantage of this bad form to hope for a new La Liga coronation. With but a single defeat since the season began, the Colchoneros can still rely on their coach, Diego Simone, to bring in his grinta and that fighting spirit.
Salary: 13.5 million pounds a year
N°2 : José Mourinho (Tottenham)
Will Tottenham finally manage to join in the fight for the title and maybe even dream of a new coronation, 60 years after the last one? For that to happen, the team can count on the Harry Kane / Heung-Min Son duo since the start of the season. Further more, the direction has since November 2019 trusted in José Mourinho to help the club pass this milestone.
Salary: 15.7 million pounds a year
N°1 : Pep Guardiola (Manchester City)
The current coach for the Citizens, renowned for his love of sportsmanship and his very odd restrictions towards his players, is doubtlessly the most sought after coach in current football. But his ongoing contract with the English club will be difficult to break, and it's hard to picture the Spaniard leaving, at least until he doesn't bring in another victory at the Champions League...
Salary: 20.7 million pounds a year
