Super Eagles head coach,Stephen Okechukwu Keshi, is the 28th highest paid manager at this year's World Cup.
Keshi, who earns just above Ghana's Kwesi Appiah among the five African
coaches going to the world cup is on a salary of £233,750 per annum.
Keshi is among the five lowest-paid managers who are all nationals of
their own countries, and in order of smallest pay are Miguel Herrera of
Mexico (£125,000 per year), James Kwesi Appiah of Ghana (£150,000), Niko
Kovac of Croatia (£162,000) and Safet Susic of Bosnia (£210,000)
Africa's highest earning coach is Sabri Lamouchi of the Ivory Coast, a
Frenchman with a Tunisian heritage, presently earning a salary that is
most extreme compared to the average wage in his country of employment.
His annual pay of £618,125 is a staggering 795 times as much as the
average annual pay of £778 per year in the Ivory Coast - or £14.96 per
week.
The Coaches of Algeria (Vahid Halilodzic) and Cameroun (Volker Finke)
are next behind Lamouchi on the Africa world cup coaches paylist on a
salary of £600,000 and £235,000 respectively.
Globally Russia's Fabio Capello tops the coaches pay list on a salary
of almost £7m a year while the lowest earning coach is Miguel Herrera of
Mexico on a salary of £125,000 per year.
The combined annual salaries of the 32 bosses add up to £39.1m, making the average pay £1.2m.
