Since his arrival, Manchester United has really improved. The players have shown a positive attitude and are doing impressively well on the pitch. 

As of now, Erik ten Hag‘s side is the only Premier League team left in four major competitions. A run of 11 wins in 12 games has taken the Red Devils to fourth in the Premier League, Carabao Cup semi-finals and FA Cup fourth round. They are also still in the Europa League, where they are waiting to face FC Barcelona next month. 

And there is a big prize waiting for the Dutchman if he guides Manchester United back to the UEFA Champions League. 

According to reports, ten Hag will pocket an eye-watering three million euros if Manchester United finish in the top four. The bonus is on top of his salary at Old Trafford. 

Talking of his salary, how much does Erik ten Hag earn and what is his net worth? 

Erik Ten Hag’s Salary 

After assessing several options, Manchester United made Erik ten Hag their permanent manager on April 21, 2022. 

The Dutchman joined the Red Devils after spending four-and-a-half years with Eredivisie giants Ajax. 

According to the Sun, Erik ten Hag’s salary at Manchester United is £9 million per year, which is equivalent to £173,000 per week. 

Ten Hag’s amount is only half of what Pep Guardiola earns at Manchester City. However, his contract is loaded with incentives which leave him smiling at the end of the season if his team does well.

How Rich Is Erik Ten Hag? 

As mentioned above, Erik ten Hag has a significant net worth. Since becoming the head coach of Ajax, ten Hag began making a lot of money. 

Adding the value of all his assets and bank balance, Erik ten Hag has a net worth of $4 million, as per several sources. 

It is good to note that money is not a factor for the Dutchman since he comes from a rich family. He defied his father’s rules to join business as he had an interest in football. 

Erik ten Hag’s father, Hennie, is a successful businessman who owns a real estate company and other financial firms. He wanted his son to be involved in the family business alongside his brothers, Rico and Michel. But Erik made it clear that he had other passions at a very young age. 

Rico and Michel are now in charge of their father’s company, which was founded in 1967. Michel is the chairman of the company’s board. He assumed more responsibility at the company after his father stepped back.
