BlueRayDick:


It is still much . How many professionals do u know in the UK that earns 10k pounds on a weekly basis ? Is it doctors? Tech guys? or finance guys?

The boy is just 17 and that 10k is a good starting place for him

Lush100:
.

Rodri should be the one injured.

Dollywood:


You don’t seem to understand that his 10k p/w after taxes and maybe national insurance will amount to 5k p/w as a take home pay

Dollywood:


You don’t seem to understand that his 10k p/w after taxes and maybe national insurance will amount to 5k p/w as a take home pay

Jodera:

Is 5k weekly take home pay a small money?

That's exactly what they're letting you know

BlueRayDick:


I wonder how much he thinks the regukar players of mid table teams earn sef . Aldingra earns 12,500 weekly o and Gilmore earns 20,000 weekly before tax

Arsenal gives a 17 year old 10k as his first salary he's saying it's not much .

BlueRayDick:


I don't understand what u are going on and about sef. 10k per week gross amount to 5k per week net for both footballers and doctors right ?

Now how many doctors , nurses , engineers , tech guys and finance guys do u know that earn 10k gross/5k net per week as entry level salary in the UK ?

Let's see if the 10k is a lot or not

Dollywood:


It is a lot but I was expecting you guys to say something about how huge of a grueling tax footballers pay to the government. Footballers only earn about half their main salaries after taxes. So when you see £326,923.08 p/w, in reality it is £173,481.39 p/w.

iamoyindamola:

That's why I even used championship players
Moreover 5k weekly for a 17 still living with his parents is luxury mehn
He will feed his people and still have alot to save
And he will still have sponsorship deal

BlueRayDick:


U still haven't answered my question ; Is it only footballers that pay tax ? Don't other professionals pay tax ?

BlueRayDick:


Exactly , playing in a big club like arsenal makes him open to different sponsorship deals from different companies

Dollywood:


I don’t think any brand will want to bring sponsorship deals to a 17 y/o unknown fledging.

Dollywood:


It’s heavier on the rich

Dollywood:


I don’t think any brand will want to bring sponsorship deals to a 17 y/o unknown fledging.

BlueRayDick:


Says who ? Neymar signed his first deal
With Nike at the age of 13. Go figure

sod09:

Lmao you know nothing 🤣🤣

Dollywood:


In contrast, I know everything.

Dollywood:

From birth, Neymar Jr has been a star.

BlueRayDick:


If u know that, then u should also know that Nwaneri as a 17 year old is getting a contract that places him above professionals in the financial circle who spent years in the university while he just wrote his GSCE as a teenager .

The crux of this whole matter is that u are wrong thinking he's not getting paid more than average as a teenager considering his talent. There are so many footballers older than him who don't even get paid as much as 10k gross .

For your information, Nwaneri is getting the same salary as man utd's Kobbie Mainoo on a gross .

sod09:

k

Dollywood:


At his age Neymar was already a prodigy with a fame no one else has seen. This “Nwaneri” is still a fledging and an unknown.

BlueRayDick:


It doesn't change the fact that he got a good contract for his age and talent . That's the crux of the matter . All these Amala turning is just by the way .

10k per week for his services is a good and fair deal to all parties . Don't cry more than the bereaved .

BlueRayDick:


That's how tax work generally . The higher u are on the food chain, the higher ur tax is . What I pay now as tax is higher than what I pay 10 years ago even in naija . That's why it's called pay as you earn

Dollywood:


Having almost half of your hard earned money split in half is daunting. Now it makes sense why athletes duck paying taxes like Messi and Ronaldo for example.

BlueRayDick:


The rich always subsidize the poor , that's how tax works in the western world . That's why the players negotiate contracts that allows them have a luxurious life after deducting taxes

Dollywood:

Also why they go to Saudi Arabia because they earn a fat paycheck and don’t pay taxes there.

BlueRayDick:


That is because Saudi is a 4cking oil rich country; they don't pay personal income tax in Saudi . It has nothing to do with whether u are a footballer or a Surgeon.

Generally they don't pay personal income tax in Saudi

Spy360:

For someone just signing his first pro deal, 10k is massive. This is already PL level which can even be upgraded if he gets into the first team next season.
