He was the first £1million player in England.
As of recent data, first division English football players, particularly those in the Premier League, earn substantial salaries, with average annual earnings ranging from £2 million to over £3 million. Top players can earn significantly more, with some contracts exceeding £10 million per year, including bonuses and endorsements. Salaries can vary widely depending on the club, player experience, and marketability.
The first football player to make a million dollars a year was Joe Namath. In 1969, Namath signed a three-year contract with the New York Jets that paid him a total of $3 million, making him the highest-paid player in football at the time.
