Arsenal players sign 2 contracts - 1 for basic salary which is taxed as normal, around 40% and another for performance bonus related payments. These bonus payments can add up if Arsenal play well and can amount to doubling Arsenal players basic salary.
In 1 season alone Arsenal payed 76k in tax on 7.6 million pounds of player payments. A firm called Sevco 1270 which Arsenal players are shareholders of, paid bonuses to a Jersey based trust fund. Even the manager(Arsene Wenger) has saved grands using this method.
Arsenal have also set up what is known as a employee benefit trust, through which bonuses are loaned to players, but never paid back. 41% in tax would normally be due on such loans if they were paid directly rather than from offshore, Arsenal players paid 1%. |
