Erik ten Hag has earned a staggering £19.5milion in compensation payouts within just ten months following his dismissals from Manchester United and Bayer LeverKusen.

The United coach, who was relieved of his duties at Old Trafford earlier this year before taking charge at Leverkusen, lasted only months in Germany before facing another early exit.

Despite setbacks on pitch. Ten Hag’s back-to-back sackings have translated into lucrative severance packages, placing him among the most financially rewarded managers in recent years.

The Dutchman who took charge at Bayer Leverkusen in July 1, oversaw a German Cup victory over SG Sonnenhof Grossonaspach, a 2-1 Bundesliga loss to to Hoffenhem, and a thrilling 3-3 draw with Werder Bremen.
