Eight hundred thousand an hour. Exactly how much does Cristiano Ronaldo earn in Saudi Arabia?
That Cristiano Ronaldo will earn unimaginable money in Saudi Arabia is clear to everyone. But on paper, the amount looks even crazier. If until now Ronaldo was secured for several lifetimes ahead, now he will secure ten generations down the line.
That Cristiano Ronaldo will earn unimaginable money in Saudi Arabia is clear to everyone. But on paper, the amount looks even crazier. If until now Ronaldo was secured for several lifetimes ahead, now he will secure ten generations down the line.
The Portuguese phenomenon has always been one of the best players in the world, alternately ranked first, second or third. Who else should deserve it but the best goalscorer in history, holder of every Champions League record imaginable and, most importantly, a hugely profitable player in terms of marketing.
So, at the end of his career, he got one more huge contract. It sort of matches the limitless possibilities of the sheikhs in Saudi Arabia. Let’s break down this amount in detail.
According to sources and media in Saudi Arabia, Ronaldo will get..:
14 513,- CZK per MINUTE
870 825,- CZK per HOUR
6 526 430,- per DAY
32 632 195,- per WEEK
141 406 250,- per MONTH
1 696 875 000,- per YEAR
This brings the total amount to 75 million dollars per year (1 696 875 000,- CZK). But beware, that’s not all. The first important note is that there is no personal income tax in Saudi Arabia, so it all goes into Ronald’s pocket.
And the second, more important, note is that this is far from the final amount. The $75 million Ronaldo is collecting is only for the gaming side. But the global superstar has huge marketing potential in a country with a growing interest in football, and that is also capitalized on in the contract.
Thus, the Portuguese will collect an additional 80 million dollars (1 810 000 000,- CZK) annually for the marketing rights, which he will own one hundred percent. It is not unnoticed that this site will earn him more than playing football.
This totals $155 million, with another $45 million to be collected by Ronaldo from advertisements. In total, he will earn $200 million a year, which translates to a staggering and unimaginable $4.5 billion.
