Managers of national teams seldom get as much attention as the biggest coaches in club football, but that will change in November when the World Cup 2022 kicks off in Qatar.
Didier Deschamps will lead France's title defence this winter against 31 other managers, many of whom will be eyeing his prized possession.
Germany manager Hansi Flick, England's under-pressure boss Gareth Southgate, Brazil manager Tite, Lionel Scaloni of Argentina, and Spain's Luis Enrique are just some of the names who will be targeting glory on December 18 at the Lusail Stadium.
And most of them are paid handsomely for their efforts. So how much do the national team managers earn?
Finance Football have compiled a list of the highest earning managers at the World Cup this year. Their salaries can be seen in the picture gallery above. To view the next image, click on the arrows or swipe if on a mobile device.
Why it pays to compare
A comparison of sending Dh20,000 from the UAE using two different routes at the same time - the first direct from a UAE bank to a bank in Germany, and the second from the same UAE bank via an online platform to Germany - found key differences in cost and speed. The transfers were both initiated on January 30.
Route 1: bank transfer
The UAE bank charged Dh152.25 for the Dh20,000 transfer. On top of that, their exchange rate margin added a difference of around Dh415, compared with the mid-market rate.
Total cost: Dh567.25 - around 2.9 per cent of the total amount
Total received: €4,670.30
Route 2: online platform
The UAE bank’s charge for sending Dh20,000 to a UK dirham-denominated account was Dh2.10. The exchange rate margin cost was Dh60, plus a Dh12 fee.
Total cost: Dh74.10, around 0.4 per cent of the transaction
Total received: €4,756
The UAE bank transfer was far quicker – around two to three working days, while the online platform took around four to five days, but was considerably cheaper. In the online platform transfer, the funds were also exposed to currency risk during the period it took for them to arrive.
