The Premier League is considered by many to be the most elite football competition in the world. Therefore, everyone involved in it, from players to coaches, receives a very large salary.
So far, the spotlight has often been focused on player salaries, even though coaches also earn extraordinary income. Here are five coaches with the highest salaries in the Premier League, citing Sportskeeda, Saturday (26/9/2020).
5. Brendan Rodgers – Leicester City
Leicester City coach, Brendan Rodgers, started this list. He started his career at Leicester on 27 February 2019. Since then, Rodgers has made Leicester start to be reckoned with in the Premier League. The northern Irish passport tactician made Leicester play attacking.
Leicester’s neat performance earned Rodgers a contract extension which kept him at the King Power Stadium until 2025. Rodgers also received a salary of 10 million pounds per year from Leicester.
4. Carlo Ancelotti – Everton
Carlo Ancelotti started his journey with Everton on December 22, 2019. Ancelotti, who arrived in the middle of last season, had the task of bringing Everton to compete in the mid-table. The task was completed by Ancelotti well.
The Italian tactician has now kept Everton unbeaten in the first two Premier League matches. Judging by Ancelotti’s slick performance, Everton’s management is not wrong to pay him 11.5 million pounds per year.
3. Jurgen Klopp – Liverpool
The name of the Liverpool coach, Jurgen Klopp, is in third position. Klopp has just made history as the first coach to bring Liverpool to the Premier League title with a new format. He formulated a strategy that made Liverpool the strongest team in the 2019-2020 Premier League.
Klopp’s performance made Liverpool willing to pay him 15 million pounds per year. It is comparable to the feat that Klopp has given Liverpool and the fans.
2. Jose Mourinho – Tottenham Hotspur
Jose Mourinho started his adventure in the Premier League again by managing Tottenham Hotspur on November 20, 2019. Tottenham owner, Daniel Levy, who is notoriously stingy, is willing to pay Mourinho 15 million pounds per year for the presence of a trophy in his club’s award cabinet.
Mourinho, who has a history of coaching with many achievements, is ready to fulfill Levy’s hopes. However, Tottenham unfortunately was not consistent at the start of their campaign in the 2020-2021 Premier League.
The Lilywhites – nicknamed Tottenham – have suffered one defeat and won one win in the first two matches. There is a lot of homework that must be done by the Portuguese tactician before he can bring Tottenham into an achievement.
1. Josep Guardiola – Manchester City
Posisi pertama ditempati oleh Pelatih Manchester City, Josep Guardiola. Jika Mourinho memiliki riwayat kepelatihan luar biasa, Guardiola bisa dikatakan selevel dengannya. Oleh sebab itu, Man City menggaji Guardiola 20 juta pounds per tahun.
The Citizens –julukan Man City– sangat yakin bahwa juru taktik asal Spanyol itu adalah sosok yang bisa menghadirkan trofi Liga Champions pertama ke Etihad Stadium. Menjuarai Liga Champions merupakan target utama Guardiola bersama Man City.
