According to many sources, Cristiano Ronaldo is enjoying a total estimated income of about 658 million USD, completely exempt from tax. This is an unprecedented number in the history of world football, helping CR7 far surpass any other star in terms of income.
Not only receiving a record salary, Ronaldo was also provided with a private plane to serve travel and a luxury villa worth about 14 million USD, fully meeting high-end security and amenities standards.
To ensure optimal living and training conditions, Ronaldo was assigned a team of 16 full-time employees, including personal chefs, fitness coaches, recovery specialists, security teams and personal assistants. This is a rare treatment, even for top stars in Europe.
In addition to the hard salary, the Portuguese superstar's achievements are also particularly attractive. He received about $110,000 for each goal and $25,000 for each assist. In case of winning the Golden Boot award, CR7 will be awarded an additional 5.5 million USD.
If Al Nassr wins all tournaments in one season, the total prize for Ronaldo could be up to 11 million USD, while the AFC Champions League championship will bring him about 9 million USD.
Off the pitch, Ronaldo continues to affirm his outstanding commercial value as individual funding contracts bring him about $83 million a year. Notably, CR7 also holds a 15% stake in Al Nassr, estimated at about 45 million USD. This shows that his role is not only a player, but also a strategic partner of the club.
These privileges make Ronaldo the biggest symbol of Saudi Arabian football today. His presence not only elevated Al Nassr, but also contributed to bringing the Saudi Pro League to the world football map.
