Fulton, @ Euro 24286, highest paid foreign coach in Olympic sports

Fulton, the sports ministry revealed while replying to a query on engagement of foreign coaches, draws an amount of Euro 24,286 (₹21.7 lakh) a month.

The head coach of the men's team has been drawing the salary since April 26, 2023 and his contract runs until December 31, 2028, after the Los Angeles Olympics.

As for the expenditure incurred, the ministry says, "The National Sports Federations (NSFs) are allowed to hire foreign experts on their own within the budget allocated by the Government."

The South African's contract was extended after India's bronze medal at the Paris Olympics.

Interestingly, Fulton draws double the amount any other foreign coach engaged in the country draws.

Fulton's predecessor Graham Reid was getting US$15,000 per month.

Union Sports Minister Mansukh Mandviya was responding to a query by Rajya Sabha MP Anil Kumar Yadav Mandadi on December 5.

While it is not clear since when Fulton has been drawing this amount, it is understood this could be after the Paris Olympics.
