Mauricio Pochettino won his first title as a coach yesterday. The Argentine won the French Super Cup with PSG after defeating Olympique de Marseille 2-1, and only 15 days after being announced as the new coach of the Parisian team. As reported by L'Equipe, the Santa Fe is the highest paid coach in the history of PSG and one of the most perceived in the world.
The prestigious French newspaper assures that Pochettino earns € 550,000 per month, without taking into account the extra premiums included in his contract. In other words, the former Tottenham coach earns about € 7 million a year And it is well above the PSG average in terms of salary, since it receives € 940,000 gross per month and the average of the current Ligue 1 champion is € 806,000. In your senior year, Poche could amount to € 670,000 per month that would place it at € 8 million net annually.
If we compare his salary with that of his time at Tottenham, Murphy's also wins. In 2014, Daniel Levy offered Pochettino a salary of € 6 million gross per season, and then extended him in May by raising him € 4 million the salary until his dismissal in November 2019. According to English media, Pochettino still has to collect 23 million from his former team in compensation.
Regarding the coaches of the Al-Khelaïfi era, Pochettino's salary, currently valued at € 550,000 per month, is higher than Ancelotti's, who received € 500,000 per month between 2012 and 2013. Blanc, with € 400,000 and Tuchel, with € 500,000 also, do not exceed the salary that Pochettino will receive during his time as PSG coach.
