I’m moving to London, so what is the cost of living? My missus is going to move down with me with my little one’. I did think I was worth a little bit more.“But you don’t want to be like, ‘I think I should be earning X amount’. And then because I didn’t use an agent, I get that as a signing-on fee.“ChatGPT has been my best agent to date. Agent fees are 5 per cent. ChatGPT is £15 per month for premium. Footballers’ finances are a lot different than most people realise.”Mitchell went on to explain: “People have this thing about footballers being paid so well, and we are very fortunate. But there’s a big difference between somebody earning two or three grand a week that’s a professional footballer and somebody earning two or three grand a week that’s a doctor.“The difference is the doctor is guaranteed pretty much [that amount] until he’s 65, whereas players in the EFL from League One downwards are on one or two-year contracts.“Let’s say you’re getting three grand a week – you’re getting taxed 45 per cent, and then you’ve got five percent agent fees. You’ve only seen half of that, so you’ve got £1,500 that you’re getting in a week.“Don’t get me wrong it’s a good amount of money, but when you’ve got a mortgage and a car, and then your missus can’t work because she’s living away from Manchester, your expenses are very high.“So when that contract is finished – and you’ve got the expenses of four grand a month – you’re in a bit of a pickle. You have to be careful with your money and your spending.“It’s not as lucrative and glamorous as it seems. You’ve got to think about life after football. It’s not a career you’re going to be in at 65 – it’s a career that you’re in for the next two years guaranteed if you’re on a two-year contract.”
