After renewing his contract with the Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr, the Portuguese player had his fortune valued at 1.2 billion euros.
Cristiano Ronaldo has set yet another record by becoming the first footballer with an estimated wealth of more than a billion euros.
The player’s already considerable fortune increased in June when he renewed his contract with Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr, which guaranteed the Portuguese another €344m, according to the latest Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
The player, who is currently 40, extended his time at the Saudi club — in which he still holds a 15% stake — until 2027.
In addition to the sporting contracts, Bloomberg also highlighted the player’s income from advertising contracts.
It reported that he had he earned more than 550 million dollars (€473m) in wages between 2002 and 2023, almost 18 million dollars (€15.5m) for a 10-year contract with Nike, and 175 million dollars (€150.6m) for other agreements with brands such as Armani and Castrol.
