Chris Hogg is an English football manager and former professional defender. His net worth is not publicly documented, but it is likely modest by top-flight standards given a career spent largely in England’s lower divisions and Scottish football, both as a player and as a coach. He was appointed manager of League Two club Northampton Town in July 2026.
Early Life & Family
Christopher Francis Hogg was born on March 12, 1985, in Middlesbrough, England. He joined York City’s youth system in 1997 and captained England at under-15 level before signing for Ipswich Town for a reported £150,000 compensation fee in June 2001.
Rise to Fame
Hogg made his name as a composed centre-back after moving to Hibernian in 2005 under manager Tony Mowbray. He formed a defensive partnership with Rob Jones, won the Scottish League Cup, was voted Hibernian’s Player of the Year for the 2007-08 season, and was later made club captain.
Career History
After Hibernian, Hogg played for Inverness Caledonian Thistle and non-league sides including Needham Market before moving into coaching, starting in youth roles at Ipswich Town and Newcastle United. He then became a trusted assistant to manager Liam Manning, following him to MK Dons, Oxford United, Bristol City and Norwich City, including a spell in interim charge of Bristol City’s first team. In July 2026, Hogg was appointed manager of Northampton Town on a two-year contract, his first permanent head coaching role.
How They Built Their Wealth
Hogg’s income has come from wages as a lower-league and Scottish top-flight defender during his playing career, followed by coaching and assistant-manager salaries at Championship and League One clubs, and now a manager’s salary at League Two level — roles that pay well below Premier League sums.
Personal Life
Limited detail about Hogg’s personal life is publicly available; he has spoken in interviews about hobbies including BMX riding.
As a newly appointed League Two manager, Chris Hogg’s net worth remains undisclosed and is likely modest, built through two decades in English and Scottish football as both a player and a coach.
