It is no secret that Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the best players in history, and as a consequence, the Portuguese is one of the most millionaire footballers on the planet. If he already was, now the contract he signed with Al Nassr for 200 million euros places him as the highest paid.

After an inglorious time at Manchester United, Cristiano Ronaldo made the decision to go into sporting exile in Saudi Arabia due to a huge and succulent contract of 200 million euros per year in the Middle East to play for Al Nassr. Beyond exorbitant numbers in his contractual relationship, the Portuguese forward has another strong income that increases his fortune numbers even more.

According to information from newspaper AS, Cristiano Ronaldo is the celebrity who earns the most for publishing a photo on Instagram to promote a brand or product. With more than 600 million followers on Instagram, the forward receives 2.1 million euros every time he uploads content to his account. In the top 5 of best payments for this activity there is also Lionel Messi located in the third step of the top 5. The others are Kylie Jenner, from the Kardashian dynasty, the singer Selena Gómez and La Roca Johnson.

Goals to achieve

Beyond a tremendous sports career where he has achieved absolutely everything at the Club level, Cristiano Ronaldo still has a current goal in Saudi Arabia with the colors of Al Nassr. The Portuguese forward wants to win the local league as he already did when he had to compete in Spain with Real Madrid, England representing Manchester United, Portugal with Sporting Lisbon and Italy for Juventus. Until now he was the winner of the Arab club championship but failed to win the national league.
