There is no Liverpool’s Arne Slot or Manchester United’s Ruben Amorim in the top three with Everton manager David Moyes the surprise name in third place, taking home £1,020,000, translating to £257,000 per week, having returned to Goodison Park since his departure in 2013.
Moyes is proving to be value for money as he has steered Everton from the Premier League’s relegation zone and now occupy 15th place on 34 points, 17 away from the drop zone.
