Which teams in the Premier League have cost their coaches the most? Tottenham and Chelsea at the top

It’s not easy for coaches in the Premier League, as several of them usually quit in the autumn. However, it is often a very expensive affair for clubs. The owner of Tottenham, who has invested an incredible £86 million in coaches over the last 5 years, could say the most about this.

Having a good coach is absolutely fundamental to success. Everyone is aware of this, not least club owners who invest huge sums in quality coaches to win them trophies.

West Ham United – £35 million

The fourth highest spending club in the Premier League is West Ham United, who have spent £35 million on their 3 coaches over the last 5 years. One contract signing thus cost the Hammers £11.7 million, with these coaches coaching an average of 118 games.

Manchester United – £54.6 million

Manchester United were also led by three coaches during this period. However, the Old Trafford club had to dig much deeper into their pockets, paying £54.6 million for the trio of Louis van Gaal, José Mourinho and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Sadly, however, no one has been able to build on Sir Alex Ferguson’s long-standing success and a Norwegian coach now sits on a very rickety chair and unless he significantly improves his team’s play and, of course, results, fans will soon see a new name on the bench.

Chelsea – £67.8 million

The three aforementioned Manchester United coaches have coached an average of 99 games. However, a total of 5 coaches have definitely not been given that much time by Roman Abramovich, who have led their players to an average of 77 games.

They don’t know failure at Stamford Bridge! If you’re not winning, you’re flying. This way of running a club is very close to the Russian oligarch and he is not afraid to pay for it. In total, the last 5 coaches have cost him £67.8 million.

Tottenham – £85.9 million

However, the owner of Tottenham has had to dig deepest into his pocket as his last 4 coaches have cost £85.9 million and it has to be added that it hasn’t come to nothing so far.

The closest to a big trophy was undoubtedly Mauricio Pochettino, who took Spurs all the way to the Champions League final, where they fell short to a flawless Liverpool.

What is interesting about Tottenham is that they are the biggest spending team in the Premier League in terms of coaches, but they do not invest as much in players, certainly not as much as the two clubs mentioned above.

However, that could change with the arrival of Antonio Conte, who when he goes to a club has high expectations, which he very often manages to meet. So we will see if the owner of the London club will start investing more in the players as well.
