The salary that Neil Lennon, the new coach of Rapid, will receive after signing with the team from Giulești until 2026 has been made public.
Dan Șucu, the owner of Rapid, made a financial effort to bring in a coach with the CV of Neil Lennon, with titles won in Scotland with Celtic.
According to Fanatik, Neil Lennon earns 40,000 euros monthly at Rapid, but Dan Șucu also withdraws another 20,000 euros from the accounts for the Northern Irishman's staff. Thus, the total amount reaches 60,000 euros per month for those who will lead Rapid from the bench in the new season.
With this salary, Neil Lennon is certainly the highest-paid coach in the Super League, only Dan Petrescu from CFR Cluj being close to the Northern Irishman. Elias Charalambous, the coach of the champion FCSB, earns 5,000 euros per month, a salary that will be increased if the team reaches the group stage of European cups.
Neil Lennon signed a two-season contract with Rapid, until the summer of 2026.
