Frank Lampard and his wife Christine boast a higher combined net worth than any other current Premier League manager, according to CelebrityNetWorth. The Coventry City boss is preparing to lead his side into their first top-flight game since 2001, facing Arsenal on Friday night.
Lampard's wealth and Coventry's promotion
CelebrityNetWorth reports that Lampard's wealth is around £44million ($60m). The Premier League icon, who won three league titles as a Chelsea player, earns around £5m per year at Coventry, it has been claimed.
Lampard guided Coventry to the Championship title last season, winning the league by 11 points to secure promotion. The 48-year-old has strengthened his squad during the summer, bringing in Taiwo Awoniyi, Caleb Yirenkyi, Gustavo Hamer and others.
Christine's contributions
Christine Lampard is also a millionaire through her presenting work. The TV host reportedly signed a £4m contract with ITV in 2010. A decade later, her company Chrisola Entertainment submitted accounts showing total cash and assets of £2.516 million.
The couple's combined net worth of around £50m surpasses that of any other current Premier League manager. Frank and Christine met at the Pride of Britain awards in 2009 and married in 2015. They have two children together, and Lampard also has two daughters from a previous relationship.
Comparing other Premier League bosses
Mikel Arteta's net worth is around £18.5m ($25m), according to CelebrityNetWorth. Everton boss David Moyes is said to be worth the same amount, with his wealth reportedly surpassing that of Manchester United head coach Michael Carrick, listed at around £12m ($16m).
New Manchester City boss Enzo Maresca's net worth was estimated to range between £1.6m and £4m last year. Chelsea's Xabi Alonso (£44m) is the only coach to match Lampard's wealth, but Christine's TV work means the married couple still boast a higher combined net worth than other Premier League bosses.
