In relation to other footballers who at his age want to stick the last “brands” in Saudi Arabia and the USA, the Andy Carroll chose a different path.
The 35-year-old English striker made the decision this summer to strengthen her Bordeauxwith the historic club being relegated to 4th division of France, at the mercy of the enormous financial problems it faces.
The experienced forward, who this year already has 5 goals and 3 assists with the “Girondins” shirt, recently spoke to “Equipe” about his transfer to Bordeaux, stressing that the money he gets not even enough for the rent of his house (!)however, his dream was to play in a few years with his son in the team!
“I won’t say the exact amount I get but to give you an idea, since the day I came here, I have been renting a small house and my monthly salary is less than the rent. I came here obviously for other reasons than the money. I had offers from Saudi Arabia but I wasn’t interested in that. Ideally I would like to continue playing here until I’m 40 and play with my son who is 14 in the same team.” he said characteristically.
French publications reveal Carroll’s famous salary in Bordeaux! And he is none other than a meager monthly salary of 1,614 euros gross!
In fact, as noted, the British striker is among the lowest paid in the groupsince the most “well-paid” receive approximately 5,000 euros per month!
