Danny Murphy has a column in the Standard where he writes that you "can't blame Kyle Walker for wanting to double his £70,000 per week salary as this will set him and his family up for life".
Kyle Walker has been at spurs for around 5 years so (if I take a low estimate of his average earnings over these years of £30,000 per week) he would already have earned :
£1,560,000 per year making it a total of £7.8m so far. This is WITHOUT any sponsrship deals etc.
The Standard claim he is earning £70,000 per week which means he will get £3,640,000 per year over 5 years making a total of £18, 200, 000.
So that means he would have earned £26m without sponsorship being taken into acount over approx 10 yrs.
So my question to the Danny Murphy's of this world I would like to know how much more does he need to "set himself and his family up for life"?
Doubling my salary of £18,000 per year will massively improve my families standard of living. To pretend that is true of doubling a multimillionaires salary is plainly stupid.
IF Walker has had his head turned by money then it just shows that he is a mercenary like so many others...but no one knows yet so the press frenzy is bizarre in it's insistence of knowing everything while providing no facts.
