Ronaldo’s record-breaking wealth stems largely from his lucrative contract with Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr, valued at over $400 million, which also includes a stake in the club and access to a private jet.

Since signing with Al-Nassr in December 2022, Ronaldo has become the highest-paid athlete in the world, earning around $260 million in 2024 alone.
