Russian rugby player Valery Morozov, who plays in England, talked about the salaries in this sport in Foggy Albion.
– How much can a rugby player earn in England? Not as much as a football player?
– Of course, it cannot be compared with football. We recently lowered the salary cap. It was 7.5 million liras, it was 5 per team. All players’ salaries have been cut.
The top player can earn more than £10,000-13,000 per month. This is more than a million rubles. And ordinary rugby players are somewhere between 250-500 thousand rubles. But salaries of good players in Russia may be in this range.
But it is important to understand that there is a different standard of living in the UK. For Russian reality, there is no need to try over this 250-500 thousand. Here the prices are completely different – rent, food, gas, taxes. And for one thing you have to pay a lot – even for parking at home. The bill is constantly coming, you just have time to pay for something, ”Morozov said in an interview with Sport24 correspondent Konstantin Lesik.
