Bielsa will be the sixth highest paid coach in the Premier

Marcelo Bielsa is one of the fashion names of the Premier League and is that the popular coach has managed to make Leeds United team in the top English competition after 16 years. The team of “El Loco” has also managed to become champion of the Championship thanks to the defeat of Brentford against Stoke City, thus returning to the Premier through the front door.

Leeds himself knows that the Argentine coach is one of the great architects of the expected promotion and that is why this will be reflected in his contract from next season. As the English newspaper The Sun reports, Marcelo Bielsa is going to collect eight million pounds, an increase of two million, thus becoming the sixth highest paid coach in the Premier, even surpassing Solskjaer from almighty Manchester United which pockets seven and a half million a year.

In the event that Bielsa accepts the new contract, which he will do almost certainly, he will only be surpassed by Brendan Rodgers of Leicester (10), Carlo Ancelotti of Everton (11.5), Jurgen Klopp of Liverpool (15), Jose Tottenham's Mourinho (15) and of course Pep Guardiola who signed a great £ 20m contract a year with Manchester City.

After achieving the dream of promotion, it is time for Bielsa and the board to work to put together a team that will keep Leeds United in the Premier League. This year the three promoted teams have had very different fortunes. On the one hand, the Norwich City, champion of Championship, confirmed his descent a few days ago and the Aston Villa aims to continue on the same path. On the other, the Sheffield United remains with opportunities to qualify for Europe and it has been one of the great revelations of the season in England.
