At 24 years old, Étienne Beugré signed up for 18 months with Bordeaux and a remuneration of €10,000 gross monthly written Sud-Ouest.
This is a colossal sum for a National 2 player. This remuneration corresponds to a level of treatment that can be found in Ligue 2. Indeed, according to Sud-Ouest, the average salary figure in L2 is €8,172 gross/month.
Biggest monthly locker room pay
Still according to the regional daily, the monthly salaries of Bordeaux players excluding bonuses are at the highest at €5,250 gross per month for Mutyaba, and €5,000 gross/month for Assogba, Diallo, Trazié, Louveau and Yamberé.
This therefore places Étienne Beugre well above his teammates. The difference with Carroll, who is €1,614 gross per month, is shocking. It's almost 10 times more for the Ivorian striker. Please note, next season, Carroll's remuneration increases to 13,000 euros per month, indicates the regional daily.
It should also be noted that several players have bonuses at the end of the season or for performance which allow them to increase their remuneration. You have the details on the Sud-Ouest website.
-The idea is not to judge Étienne Beugre on his salary, but this information shines a spotlight on the club's salary policy in National 2. This remuneration was validated by the DNCG which controls the FCGB payroll, and the court of commerce within the framework of the judicial recovery procedure.
Beugre must now demonstrate on the pitch that the club's financial investment in his profile is welcome. With Carroll's injury, he has the opportunity to do so on Saturday against Poitiers, if he is administratively qualified.
