Is this man worth £90k a week?
Unbelievable though it is Wayne Rooney takes home a wage of £90,000 a week. With his astonishing pay packet in mind, we ask the question: What does it take to be a footballer and are they really worth the money?
Rooney’s £90,000 a week adds up to a monthly wage of £360,000 and a yearly salary of £4.3 million - equivalent to paying 234 nurses for a year's work. But do the years of effort put in to his game and the skill involved in it justify his massive pay cheque?
