Cristiano Ronaldo becomes the highest-paid athlete in the world - Forbes

Posted : 03 May 2023
Following his transfer to Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr, Cristiano Ronaldo has overtaken Michael Jordan as the highest paid athlete in the world for the first time since 2017.

According to Forbes, the 38-year-old Portuguese attacker made £136 million (£108.7 million) in the previous 12 months.

It is said that his deal with Al Nassr is worth more than 200 million euros ($176.5 million) annually.

Lionel Messi, the captain of Argentina's World Cup-winning team, is ranked second on Forbes' list with earnings of $130m (£103.9m).

LeBron James, a basketball player, and Canelo Alvarez, a boxer, round out Forbes' top 10, with 20-time Grand Slam tennis winner Roger Federer taking ninth position as the lone retired athlete.

Since Tiger Woods in 2020, only Dustin Johnson (sixth) and Phil Mickelson (seventh) have finished in the top 10.
