Julen Lopetegui, the Spanish national team manager who took over from Vicente del Bosque is fourth on the list of highest paid manager at the tournament. Lopetegui earns €2.58m a year and will be eager to put on a good showing, considering Spain's humiliating exit last World Cup.

The Spanish head into the tournament as outside favorites to lift the crown for the second time in eight years. Spain has a strong squad and tight balance of young and experienced players to carry them through tough times.

In a tough group with Portugal, Iran, and Morocco, Spain cannot afford to slip up and possibly face a tricky round of 16 clash against Uruguay in the knockout stages.
