The World Cup is still a few months away but England manager Fabio Capello has already been crowned a winner.
Fabio Capello has built up an impressive art collection with his earnings
The Italian has been revealed as the richest football boss in British and Irish football in The Sunday Times Sport Rich List for 2010.
Capello amassed his £34m fortune after stints in Europe at AC Milan, Roma, Juventus and Real Madrid.
But with a £6.5m-a-year contract with the FA, the 63-year-old is believed to be the highest paid England boss in history.
Capello took over at the top in 2007 after the team failed to qualify for Euro 2008 and Steve McClaren was dismissed.
He has admitted to being a fine art enthusiast and his collection is thought to be worth around £17m.
Sir Alex is third on the list
But close behind the Italian is Ipswich boss and former Manchester United midfielder Roy Keane who is worth £30m.
The Irishman outstrips his former boss Sir Alex Ferguson who is placed in third with £24m.
The rest of the top ten is dominated by European coaches and Italians in particular.
The managers might be earning a fortune but their salaries are dwarfed by many of those they coach.
David Beckham is believed to earn around £26m a year while Christiana Ronaldo rakes in £19m annually.
The top ten minted managers:
1. Fabio Capello, England, wealth estimated at £34m
2. Roy Keane, Ipswich Town, £30m
3. Sir Alex Ferguson, Manchester United, £24m
4. Carlo Ancelotti, Chelsea, £21m
5. Giovanni Trapattoni, Republic of Ireland, £18m
6. Arsene Wenger, Arsenal, £17m
7. Sven-Goran Eriksson, Ivory Coast, £16m
8. Roberto Mancini, Manchester City, £13m
9. Rafa Benitez, Liverpool, £11m
10. Steve Bruce, Sunderland; Mark Hughes, Manchester City (2008-09); Martin O'Neill, Aston Villa; Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Manchester United reserves; Gianfranco Zola, West Ham United, all with estimated £10m.
