What kind of salaries are the managers of Euro 2016 teams earning?

Where does Martin O’Neill rank when it comes to the best-paid international coaches?

RAKING IN £1 million per year as Republic of Ireland manager, Martin O’Neill is doing alright.

But he still pales in comparison to some of his peers.

Unsurprisingly, Roy Hodgson is way out in front and commands a whopping £3.5m in annual salary while Chelsea’s incoming boss Antonio Conte is second on the list.

The current Italian supremo earns £3.15m.

Interestingly, third on the list is Turkey’s Fatih Terim who rakes in a very impressive £2.7m per year.

Rounding out the top five are two high-profile figures: Joachim Low (£2.15m) and Spain’s Vicente del Bosque (£2m).

O’Neill is the eighth-highest earner at Euro 2016, behind French coach Didier Deschamps (£1.3m) and Marcel Koller from Austria (£1.15m).

Compared to the Irish boss, Norther Ireland’s Michael O’Neill takes home a modest amount.

He’s on £250,000 per year.

Inevitably, there’s a massive discrepancy between certain countries.

For every Hodgson and Conte, there’s an Anghel Iordanescu.

The Romanian manager earns £92,000 per year while there’s even a more intriguing situation in Russia.

Leonid Slutsky took over from Fabio Capello (infamously paid 7m per year while in charge) but he’s still the manager of CSKA Moscow and doesn’t take a salary from his country.

Instead, his payment is attached to bonuses and you can expect that he negotiated some pretty impressive numbers when at the bargaining table.
