HOW MUCH WORLD CUP BOSSES EARN

Roy Hodgson is modestly paid by extravagant FA standards compared to some other recent England managers - but with earnings of £3.5m per year he will still be the second-highest boss among the 32 nations at this summer’s World Cup.

And the only other manager earning more is Hodgson’s England predecessor, Fabio Capello, who is now in charge of Russia and taking home almost £7m a year.

Super Eagles of Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi is on £233,750 a year which is equivalent to over 63 million a year.








Capello’s £6.7m guaranteed pay puts him far and away in first place with almost double the salary of Hodgson. 

Two years with Russia will earn Capello £14m in addition to the £24m he earned as England boss with the FA between the start of 2008 and early 2012.

Italy’s Cesare Prandelli (£2.58m a year) is the third biggest earner ahead of Luiz Felipe Scolari of Brazil in fourth (£2.4m), Ottmar Hitzfeld of Switzerland in fifth (£2.2m), Joachim Low of Germany in sixth (£2.1m) and Vicente Del Bosque of holders Spain in seventh (£2.02m).

Six of the 32 managers have worked in England as either players or managers: Capello, Hodgson, Scolari, the USA’s Jurgen Klinsmann, France’s Didier Deschamps and Iran’s Carlos Queiroz. 

Louis van Gaal of Holland is set to be added to that list them when he starts work for Manchester United later this summer.

The most common nationality of manager at the World Cup will be German, with Germans in charge of Switzerland (Hitzfeld), Germany (Low), USA (Klinsmann) and Cameroon (Volker Finke).
