A DEEP Dive into my West Brom Contract...
On this special episode of the Fozcast, we take you through Ben's most lucrative contract he ever received while being a professional Goalkeeper. In July of 2011, Ben joined the Midlands rivals of his previous club Birmingham City, West Bromwich Albion. In that season, he played 37 of their 38 games and equalling West Brom's all time clean sheet record of 10. This led West Brom to sign Ben on a permanent deal for the sum of £4,000,000. This contract is the contract we look at today, going through it page-by-page, number by number and bonus-by-bonus to show you the money that players in highest level of English football were being paid at the start of the 2010s and also comparing this to today's insane wage bills and bonuses. In this episode, we discuss: Ben's greatest Contract 🌟 The sign-on bonuses he received 📝 The weekly wages he was on 🤑 The differences on salaries between then and now 🤯 The almost impossible playing bonuses that players struggled to reach 🤕 And so much more!
