Cristiano Ronaldo's salary is crazy.
British Planet Football will remain in the team on the 4th (Korea time) 'Ronaldo signing a two-year contract extension with Alnasr of the Saudi Arabian Professional League.Ronaldo will receive 180 million euros (about 289.4 billion won) per year through this contract.
According to the media 'As of last season, only eight European clubs have exceeded their annual team annual salary, which is higher than Ronaldo's. Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain. On the other hand, six European big clubs with lower wages than Ronaldo's annual salary are as follows.
Liverpool, the winner of last season's Premier League (EPL), is estimated to have a total annual salary of about 152 million euros (about 244.3 billion won). Liverpool cannot raise Ronaldo's salary even if all the players' salaries are sorted out. Inter Milan, which fell behind Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) and failed to reach the top of Europe, was only 144 million euros (about 231.5 billion won).
Newcastle United, which is operated by Saudi capital, also stayed at 122 million euros (about 19.1 billion won). Atletico Madrid, Spain's strongest team after Real and Barcelona, also had 137 million euros (about 220.2 billion won). Napoli, Italy's Serie A winner last season, was just 87 million euros (about 139.8 billion won), less than half of Ronaldo's annual salary.
Tottenham, the winner of the Europa League, also fell short of one Ronaldo. Tottenham's total annual salary was 123 million euros (about 17.7 billion won). Son Heung-min, who has the highest annual salary at Tottenham, receives 11.5 million euros (about 18.5 billion won) per year. It is 15.6 times larger than Ronaldo's annual salary.
The gap is wide just by comparing simple annual salary figures, but Ronaldo actually earns much more annually through various profit structures such as advertising, incentives, and image rights. According to Forbes, he has been one of the highest-earning sports stars in the world for many years, with non-football earnings also accounting for a significant portion.
The annual salary prepared by Saudi clubs for Son Heung-min is estimated to be about 30 million euros (about 48.2 billion won). 30 million euros is beyond imagination, but it is an overwhelming difference from Ronaldo.
Ronaldo still maintains enormous attention and commercial value after moving to the Saudi stage. This is the result of his brand value, global influence, and the Saudi league's globalization strategy.
