Club: Liverpool

Salary: £7.5 Million

Liverpool FC don’t mind paying any amount of money to a manager as long as they get the Merseyside club back to their past glory. Jurgen Klopp certainly fits the bill to achieve that goal. Liverpool fans couldn’t have asked for a better manager for the club than Jurgen Klopp.

This being Klopp’s first full tenure, expectations are high, with Klopp bringing in some highly talented players in the likes of Sadio Mane, Giorginio Wijnaldum, Marko Grujic, Loris Karius and a few more.

With such heavy reinforcements being brought in, the club’s fans will not settle for anything less the Champions League spots.

Klopp initially signed on a deal which would have kept him at Liverpool till June 2018, but his contract was extended till June 2022. His salary too was increased from £6 Million to £7.5 Million.
