Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has solidified his position as the world's highest-paid athlete, according to the latest Forbes list. The Al-Nassr forward has maintained his dominance in the earnings rankings, outpacing long-time rival Lionel Messi.
Ronaldo's move to Saudi Arabia in early 2023 proved to be a lucrative one. His contract with Al-Nassr, coupled with his extensive endorsement deals, catapulted him to the top of the list with a staggering annual income of $285 million.
Following closely behind Ronaldo is Lionel Messi. The Argentine legend, who made a high-profile move to Inter Miami, secured the second spot on the list with earnings of $135 million. Messi's income is primarily driven by his on-field salary and a multitude of lucrative off-field endorsements.
As the global football landscape continues to evolve, it will be interesting to see how these rankings shift in the coming years. With new leagues emerging and player salaries continuing to rise, the competition for the top spot is likely to intensify.
