Overview
- Bloomberg’s Billionaires Index estimates Ronaldo’s net worth at roughly $1.4 billion, making him the first footballer to reach billionaire status.
- The milestone is tied to a new two‑year Al‑Nassr contract that Bloomberg values at more than $400 million in earnings.
- Bloomberg’s accounting notes more than $550 million in salaries between 2002 and 2023 as a major foundation of his wealth.
- Endorsements remain significant, including a decade‑long Nike deal near $18 million per year and roughly $175 million from other sponsors, alongside CR7‑branded ventures and hotels.
- Some outlets report a higher $700 million two‑year package and a stake in Al‑Nassr, details that are not uniformly sourced across reports.
