of £122million, according to the annual football Rich
List compiled by Goal.com.
World Best footballer 2013 who happens to be Portuguese and Real Madrid star, Cristiano Ronaldo
has overthrown Lionel Messi on the rankings of
World's Richest Footballer.
A lucrative new five-year contract worth
£86.5million, signed with Real in September, means
the Portuguese came in just ahead of Messi's worth
of £120.5million.
Ronaldo enjoyed a sensational 2013, scoring all four
goals in a two-legged play-off with Sweden to guide
his country to the World Cup finals. He has scored a
phenomenal 42 goals in 33 matches for club and
country this season as Real chase a Treble of La Liga,
Copa del Rey and Champions League.
In addition to his salary which pays £14.3million a
year he has lucrative sponsorship deals with Nike,
Armani, Castrol Edge, Jacob & Co, Herbalife, Banco
Espirito Santo and KFC.
In 2013, Ronaldo launched his own line of underwear
and even opened his own museum.
Because only current professionals count in the list,
last year's leader David Beckham drops out after
announcing his retirement last May, allowing
Ronaldo to claim top spot.
Messi had an up and down year by his standards –
his salary of £12.3million was eclipsed by Ronaldo,
he suffered a prolonged injury absence and he was
forced to appear in court to testify over alleged tax
fraud.
