While Ronaldo would earn only 3 million for the Asian Cup, here's what Messi earned for the Leagues Cup

Cristiano Ronaldo is in Iran with Al Nassr set to play his first AFC Champions League match. The team led by Luis Castro will face Persepolis of Tehran in the Asian debut of the Portuguese. It is worth noting that this championship is considered the most important in Asia so The Bug will be present again in an international championship

Similarly, the Madeira-born team has had a good run of winning matches. Since qualifying for the Asian Champions League, the team has remained focused and motivated, so there are high expectations around the next league games and what the bug's team can continue to achieve.On the other hand, Lionel Messi continues to make his own in MLS soccer. 

The Argentine's team has found the path to victory and also to victory. Just two months after the arrival of the Argentine, he already accumulates a Leagues Cup title and a US Open Cup final to be played. It should be noted that the economic difference between leagues cannot be compared. While Ronaldo would earn just $3 million for the Asian Cup, this is roughly what Lionel Messi earned for the Leagues Cup with Inter Miami.

According to GOAL, Inter Miami received $5 million for lifting the tournament that marked Messi's first U.S. title and the first in the history of The Herons. Although the difference is not abysmal, there is certainly a difference.
