Cristiano Ronaldo | $500 Million

As one of the most famous footballers in the world, Cristiano Ronaldo has a lot of credit to his name. He is widely considered as one of the greatest players of all time and the best player in the world. Not only that. The famed athlete is also one of the most marketable sportsmen globally. That is how great he is.

Forbes ranked Ronaldo as the world’s highest-paid athlete in 2016 and 2015. ESPN, in addition, named him the most famous player from 2016 to 2019. If these are not yet enough, Time featured him as one of the 100 Most Influential People In The World in 2014. If you do not agree, Ronaldo is just the first football player and the third sportsman who has earned $1 billion in his career. This is probably why he now has a $500 million fortune.
