World Cup Winner Of Nigerian Descent Earns N240 Million Annually At Liverpool

Published: July 08, 2017

England U20 international of Nigerian descent Sheyi Ojo is among the least paid players in the first team of Liverpool.

The 20-year-old is expected to pocket 520,000 pounds (approximately N240 million using the unofficial exchange rates) in 2017 at the Anfield outfit.

Liverpool's top earner is Brazil star Philippe Coutinho, who takes home around 200,000 pounds per week.

Ojo joined Liverpool from Milton Keynes Dons in 2011 and penned a new long-term contract with the Premier League team just before he was farmed out on loan to Wolverhampton Wanderers two years ago.

The Nigeria Football Federation target has reported to Melwood for pre-season training despite his international commitments with the Young Lions in South Korea this summer.
