GRAHAM POTTER will earn £10million-a-year at Chelsea after signing a lucrative five-year deal at Stamford Bridge.
And that makes the 47-year-old the joint FOURTH highest earner in the Premier League after he received a bumper pay rise after leaving Brighton.
The ex-Swansea gaffer was believed to have been pocketing £2m-per-year with the Seagulls where he was one of the top-flight’s lowest earners.
But SunSport understands he will take home £50m from the long-term contract he penned in West London.
That is more than sacked predecessor Thomas Tuchel – who was paid around £7m-a-year by the Blues.
But what do Potter’s colleagues earn? SunSport takes a look below.
Potter earns almost HALF of what Manchester City gaffer Pep Guardiola rakes in, with the Spaniard boasting a hefty £19m-a-year salary.
But the Citizens manager is fully deserving of his yearly wages having won four Premier League crowns in the last five years.
Liverpool’s Jurgen Klopp ranks second earning £16m every year having penned a new contract in April.
Antonio Conte is third with Tottenham giving the Italian a £15m contract when he replaced Nuno Espirito Santo in November 2021.
Potter and Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers complete the top five with both men earning £10m-a-year.
Manchester United’s Erik ten Hag then follows with the Dutchman being paid £9m-per-year after succeeding interim gaffer Ralf Rangnick.
Mikel Arteta is next up with the Arsenal boss rewarded with an £8.3m yearly deal in May.
Southampton’s Ralph Hasenhuttl earns £6m-a-year, with Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard and David Moyes all on £5m annually.
Interim Brighton manager Adam Lallana incredibly ranks 12th, with the midfielder-turned-coach taking home £4.7m-a-year.
According to Football Boast, Fulham’s Marco Silva is on a £4.5m yearly salary, with Nottingham Forest’s Steve Cooper the league’s lowest joint earner along with Brentford’s Thomas Frank at £1.5m.
Earning more than Cooper and Frank are Patrick Vieira and Eddie Howe [both on £4m], Jesse Marsch [£3.5m] and Bruno Lage [£2.5m].
And it remains unknown how much Bournemouth interim Gary O’Neil is earning after he took over from Scott Parker.
