Mauricio Pochettino, the retired Argentine footballer now a football manager, has made a name for himself during his playing years and has also been doing well as a manager for years.
With several trophies and accolades under his belt, he’s earned quite a fortune from football and made some investments for himself over the years.
Let’s take a look together.
Mauricio Pochettino Tottenham Salary
Before he left for PSG football club, Mauricio’s salary per year at Tottenham was £ 8.5million.
Even though his work with the club was over in November 2022, he didn’t leave the stadium or the club officially that November until 2023 due to a clause in the contract he signed, which said he’d stay in Tottenham stadium through 2023.
So, until the appointed date, Mauricio stayed in Tottenham, and the club had no choice but to pay him his official salary of £ 8.5 million yearly until his departure.
How Much Did Tottenham Pay to Sack Mauricio?
Daniel Levy, Tottenham Hotspur chairman, paid a ridiculous sum of £50m initially just to buy Mauricio after the manager had turned down Man U’s offer. Daniel also gifted Pochettino a £156,000 Bentley Bentayga. However, a year later, Daniel Levy had to pay half that fee to get Mauricio to pack his bags.
When Mauricio and his staff were sacked by Tottenham football club, they spent a whooping sum of £19.6 million. This was estimated to be the highest fee ever in the Premier League.
How Much Did Pochettino Earn at PSG?
Mauricio was paid £1.1 million monthly at PSG.
In addition to all the awards, accolades, and trophies he has worn for the club during his time, such as the French Supercup, which tripled his worth and wealth.
PSG Spent a Fortune During Mauricio Pochettino Sack
According to sources, when PSG sacked Mauricio Pochettino, they paid him a compensation of £20 million, one of the highest settlement payments in the club’s history.
On top of all that, they spent a fortune when they let him go because they didn’t just sack Pochettino; they sacked his entire coaching staff. PSG paid £15 million to Pochettino for dismissal, his assistant coach was paid £80,000, and his son, Sebastiano Pochettino, who was PSG’s health and fitness trainer, was paid £20,000.
