Arsenal FC has been one of the most improved clubs in the last two years. The London club saw a decline a few years ago, finding it difficult to make it to the top four, but is now competing with Europe’s finest thanks to its coach, Mikel Arteta. After a slow start to his managerial career, the former Everton player has taken the Gunners to the title race twice in two years, making him one of the most attractive young coaches in Europe. But with his recent demand in top-flight soccer, is he affordable? How much does Arteta earn, and what is his total financial value?

The Spanish coach had played for multiple high-profile clubs, including Paris Saint-Germain and Rangers, apart from Arsenal. And his previous learning spell under Pep Guardiola has skyrocketed his value. But the fans would still like to know the number associated with the Arsenal boss in 2024.

Mikel Arteta was pitched in as the Arsenal manager after a tough time for current Aston Villa manager Unai Emery in December 2019. Signing a three-and-a-half-year deal, he was reportedly earning $6.2 million per year. Around July 2020, his net worth was approximately $19 million. However, after almost four years at his preferred club, his net worth reportedly rose to around $57 million.

Meanwhile, his salary also increased to $10.5 million per year after the new terms came into effect in 2022. Additionally, the manager also agreed to stay until the end of the 2024-25 season. Nevertheless, there will be very few doubts about the Stan Kroenke-owned club’s love for renewing his contract.
