Cristiano Ronaldo reportedly has a net worth in the region of $636 million.
At the start of 2023, he was reported to have earned a whopping $136 million, according to Forbes.
That made him the current world’s highest-paid athlete, sitting above rival Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and basketball icon LeBron James.
That being said, this number will have increased massively since then, after Ronaldo doubled his salary when he joined Al Nassr, in a move which made him the highest-earning player ever.
Ronaldo’s contract, which runs until 2025, is estimated to be worth $225 million a year, including $78 million for his football salary as well as commercial bonuses.
That means Cristiano Ronaldo is earning an astonishing $18.7 million every month or $4.3 million a week.
To break that down ever further, the Portuguese star is pocketing $617,000 a day or $428 every minute.
Needless to say, Ronaldo’s earnings allow him to live a life of luxury, having spent a lot of his cash on properties, like his ‘Billionaire’s Island’ mansion.
He’s also known to splash the cash acquiring rare supercars, like this highly luxurious $2 million Ferrari.
And that’s not his only supercar, with his incredible car collection including a limited edition Bugatti Centodieci, Bugatti Chiron, Bugatti Veyron, plus a few Aston Martin, Lamborghini and Rolls-Royce motors.
But Cristiano Ronaldo is also incredibly generous with his money, having recently gifted his mother with a Porsche on her birthday.
And when Ronaldo hired his friend Brazilian singer, Luan Santana, to sing at his NYE party – he was given a a $40,000 Rolex watch.
