    I think one of the Saudi clubs are signing him and paying him £1m a week tax free

    And got him an 8:30am appointment with his GP.

    We could never match those kinds of things.

    Not checked your maths but that actually makes it sound not that crazy. My husband’s work charges him out at over £100 an hour (they don’t pay him that of course). Especially when you consider that outside of official training time he’d still be expected to do regular exercise, eat a specific way, maintain a certain type of lifestyle, some unsociable hours with restrictions on which days can be taken off and any travelling. I know it’s still a ridiculous amount but the hourly rate isn’t that different from a few jobs that are specialist and charge by the hour.

    I'm charged out at ~£200/hour. I get paid (well) but under 1/3 of that for the work I do. I'm not on anywhere near £1m though.

    £1m/year for a 40 hour week works out around £520/hr (assuming ~20hours of training, team briefing sessions, etc. and ~10 hours on a Saturday including travel time plus additional time around midweek matches)
