PSG set new record for football highest wage bill

 France club Paris Saint-Germain have set a record for the highest-ever wage bill in football at £643million per year.

The wage bill cumulated to the above figure, following the signing of Lionel Messi, Sergi Ramos, Achraf Hakimi and others in the 2021/2022 season, leading to a 45 per cent leap in their expenditure.

PSG already had big earners in the club before the arrival of Messi and others last season, with stars like Kyliam Mbappe and Neymar.

Football Benchmark’s European Champions Report for 2023 described PSG’s wage bill for 2021-22 as the highest figure ever registered by a football club.

The report was before France star Mbappe agreed to his new contract at the beginning of the current season, having snubbed Real Madrid, which is reportedly worth £547m over three years.

PSG’s enormous wage bill, could, however, have led them to record a £326m loss in their latest financial figures, according to Daily Mail UK.

Back in September, PSG were also handed a 56m fine by UEFA of which £9m had to be paid in full, for a breach of Financial Fair Play rules.

THE HISTORY OF CORPORATE IDENTITY

  THE HISTORY OF CORPORATE IDENTITY     In 1996, Graphic Design Legend Paul Rand declared “the greatest living graphic designer”—it was yet another ‘feather in the cap’ for him, and one of many during a long and colorful career that would make any present day designer envious. But more so when the acclamation comes from a visionary like Steve Jobs. In fact, it was Paul Rand’s dedication to treating design as a function of business that helped Steve Jobs’ Apple to become the design-leading powerhouse that it is today.   In 1986, Rand was hired to create a logo for Jobs, reportedly for a fee of $100,000. But long before that—back in the 1950s—he had already begun to pave the way for design systems, and the notion of corporate identity.   Many consider Rand to be the father of modern graphic design—the man who introduced the idea that commercial art could, and should, have both a strong visual appeal and an important functional role in the world of mo...

Augustine Eguavoen Did A Fine Job As Super Eagles Coach

  By now it is no news to any Nigerian sports fan, that Augustin Eguavoen and his entire team have been relieved of their duties at the helm of affairs of the Nigerian National team. Most Nigerians are happy with this development, with some claiming that his immediate predecessor, Gernot Rohr would have delivered better results. However, a simple analysis of events will clearly demonstrate that Eguavoen did a fine enough job given the circumstances. I will attempt to undertake this analysis by demonstrating, first that Eguavoen has a better record than one might realize, and secondly by comparing the performance of his Super Eagles with that of Afcon winners, Senegal, and runners-up Egypt. When Gernot Rohr was sacked a few weeks to the Afcon, knowledgeable sportspersons decried the move, citing the difficulty any new coach would face in setting up the team to play to his own patterns. In analyzing Eguavoen, therefore, it must first be understood that the new boss was operating unde...
