According to the latest statistics from Bloomberg, Ronaldo’s personal net worth has now reached US$1.4 billion, making him the first player in world professional football with a net worth of more than US$1 billion.

Bloomberg pointed out that this is the first time that Ronaldo's wealth has been included in their "Billionaire Index", and this valuation has consolidated his status as the highest-paid athlete in global football.

C Ronaldo's sources of income mainly include high salaries, sponsorship contracts and personal business investments. For most of his career, his player salary was comparable to Messi's, but since signing for Saudi club Riyadh Victory in 2023, this balance has been disrupted.

According to reports, Ronaldo’s tax-free annual salary and bonus in Saudi Arabia exceeds US$200 million, in addition to a US$30 million signing bonus. Bloomberg estimates that Ronaldo’s salary exceeds US$550 million between 2002 and 2023.

In addition, commercial endorsements are also a major pillar of Ronaldo's wealth. Cooperation with brands such as Nike, Armani, and Castrol has increased his total wealth by approximately US$200 million.

C Ronaldo has also built his own business empire off the court, covering hotels, gyms and fashion. He also owns a number of luxury homes, including an estate in a high-end golf resort near Lisbon, which is reported to be worth 20 million euros.
