Unfairpay
In this article we are going to be talking about the difference between male and female football wages. Basically, there is an enormous difference in male and female football players pay. The male players get paid so, so much more! Do you think this is fair on the girl footballers? The answer is NO! How do you think we can change this? If you would like to know how to change this then read on and find out.
Pay Differences
The highest paid male player in Britain is reportedly Paul Pogba and his payment is £16 million a year. The second highest paid male player in Britain is Wayne Rooney – you’ve probably heard of him.
The highest paid female player in Britain is Stef Houghton who gets paid £35,000 a year.
Wayne Rooney is paid roughly £15,600,000 each year.
So, Wayne Rooney is earning 260 times MORE than the highest paid female player. TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY TIMES MORE!
That is £15,565,000 difference in their wages. We are sure that you will agree that this is simply INSANE!
It’s not fair on girls
that men get paid
more for doing the same job.”
