Olivier Dall'Oglio removed from his duties as coach of ASSE, the Saint-Etienne club confided from the moment of the press release, published on Saturday the day after the defeat of the Greens on the pitch of Toulouse FC (2-1) in the Ligue 1 championship, management of the first team to director of the training center, Laurent Huard.
But the option is only provisional, a technician chosen by the management of AS Saint-Etienne will soon be appointed. One name is put forward with more insistence: Wilfried Nancy, a 47-year-old Frenchman, stationed on the other side of the Atlantic at Columbus Crew, in the MLS championship. Regarding himself, he recently said that he received an estimated salary of close to 100,000 euros gross per month for his mission.
A salary close to €27,700 per month in MLS
But in the United States, where remuneration in the sporting world is transparent, we are talking about more modest figures. Adding the fixed part and the guaranteed total, Wilfried Nancy approaches an annual remuneration of 350,000 dollars. That is, translated from the dollar to the euro and on a one-month scale, the equivalent of 27,700 euros. That is to say three and a half times less than the salary mentioned.
This 2024-2025 season, Wilfried Nancy is the tenth highest paid coach in the North American football league, at the same level as Pablo Mastroeni (Real Salt Lake) and Luchi Gonzalez (San Jose Earthquakes), in a ranking dominated by Former Manchester United defender Phil Neville at the head of the Portland Timbers, with a million dollars a year. Gerardo Martino had the same remuneration, until his recent ousting from Inter Miami.
