Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the most popular and richest players in world football. Built on the foundation of so much success, the 5-time Ballon d'Or winner has always commanded the biggest transfer fees and salaries throughout his career. In 2009, he was signed for a then World-record fee of £80m from Manchester United to Real Madrid. Since then, the Portuguese international has always earned millions of pounds annually. We'll look at how much Cristiano Ronaldo makes in a year and how much he would make in 2021.
Cristiano Ronaldo completed a £15m move from Juventus to Manchester United this summer. After 12 years away from Old Trafford, the 36-year-old returned to familiar surroundings after successful spells with Real Madrid and Juventus. Ronaldo signed a 2-year deal with United with an option to extend by a further year.
Cristiano Ronaldo's contract with Manchester United would see him earn a salary of £510,000 every week as a basic salary. This comes to approximately £26.5m annually at the club. Ronaldo would also be entitled to earn up to £25m from performance-related bonuses and achievement-related bonuses at the end of the week. This would bring his total earnings this season to £51.5m, very close to the $70m Cristiano Ronaldo made last year from football-related wealth.
Another major source of income for Cristiano Ronaldo is from the many massive endorsement deals that the Portuguese player has. Ronaldo has a very marketable personality with over 500 million followers across all social media platforms. This popularity he converts to money through the biggest endorsement deals. Cristiano Ronaldo has a lifetime endorsement deal with kit manufacturers, Nike, that is worth £1bn. Ronaldo is expected to earn at least £20m annually from his deal with Nike.
Other endorsement deals that Ronaldo has includes TAG Heuer, DAZN, Clear Haircare, Altice, Herbalife, MTG, Egyptian Steel amongst others. The 5-time Ballon d'Or winner earned about $50m from his endorsement deals last year and he is expected to earn about the same figure this year. This would bring Cristiano Ronaldo's annual earnings to at least £100m. Ronaldo has a total net worth of approximately $500m.
