How much money does Josh Sargent make?
Josh Sargent will be in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar despite a lot of criticism after a very suprising list announced by Gregg Berhalter. A lot of people raised questions about why Ricardo Pepi wasn't included instead of Sargent. The US manager was very clear by saying he could only pick between two of these three names: Jesus Ferreira, Josh Sargent and Ricardo Pepi. Berhalter's argument in favor of Sargent was the EFL Championship is a stronger league than the Eredivisie (Pepi is at FC Groningen).
On August 2021, Norwich City paid a $10 million transfer fee to Werder Bremen for Josh Sargent. The striker then signed a four-year contract which pays him almost $3 million anually. Considering this scenario, Josh Sargent makes $250k per month, $63k per week, $9k per day and almost $372 per hour.
