Manchester United head coach Jose Mourinho is already guaranteed to be one of the big winners at the World Cup — earning £400,000 a day in Russia during the tournament, Daily Mail reported.

He will be earning £1.71million for just four days work in Russia.

Mourinho, who was being chased by the BBC and ITV, has signed up for Russia’s international news channel RT, who have no live rights.

Their agreement with the Manchester United manager requires him to be in Moscow at the start of the World Cup for those lucrative four days doing a variety of punditry.Then he will work for RT on World Cup final day, but that will be done via a satellite link-up with Manchester. He is also advertising RT’s World Cup service through a video launched yesterday, which mainly promotes himself.

The World Cup will be held from June 14 to July 15 in 11 Russian cities: Moscow, Saint Petersburg, Kazan, Sochi, Nizhny Novgorod, Samara, Kaliningrad, Ekaterinburg, Saransk, Volgograd and Rostov-on-Don.
