As Euro 2024 gets underway, Gareth Southgate, is under intense pressure not only for England’s performance but also due to his position as the highest-paid manager in the tournament.

Southgate’s annual salary stands at an impressive €5.8 million (£4.9 million) as high expectations are staked against him.

Despite the hefty paycheck, England's journey in the tournament has been a mixed bag. The Three Lions launched their campaign with a narrow 1-0 victory over Serbia. This was followed by a disappointing 1-1 draw with Denmark, a result that raised questions about the team's consistency and tactical execution.

Southgate’s salary significantly surpasses that of his counterparts. Germany's Julian Nagelsmann, the second-highest-paid manager, earns €4.8 million (£4 million) annually. Portugal's Roberto Martínez and France’s Didier Deschamps are also among the top earners, making €4 million (£3.4 million) and €3.8 million (£3.2 million) respectively.

And at the lower end of the spectrum, Georgia’s Willy Sagnol earns €200,000 (£168,000) annually. The comparatively low pay of Sagnol contrasts strikingly with the millions paid by the top-tier managers, therefore exposing the different financial environments of the several national football teams.
