Italian football manager and former footballer, Giovanni Trapattoni has a net worth of £20 million as of May 2012, according to the Sunday Times Rich List. He is currently the manager of the Republic of Ireland national team also having coached Italy. As a player he was part of Italy's squad at the 1962 FIFA World Cup. Trapattoni was born on 17 March 1939, he has fallen victim to economy measures at the FAI and agreed to a second pay cut, his salary declining in stages from £2m to £1.25m. Half the Italian's wages and half of those of his four-man coaching team are met by the Irish telecoms billionaire Denis O’Brien. When in Italy, Trapattoni runs affairs from an office above a garage owned by a family friend on the outskirts of Milan. His contract runs to the end of the 2014 World Cup campaign, when he might call time on one of the more successful careers — he is one of six to win the European Cup as a player (with AC Milan in 1969) and as a manager (with Juventus in 1985). He is considered the most successful club manager in the history of Serie A.
