Portuguese football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has officially become the first footballer in the world to achieve billionaire status, marking another milestone in his legendary career.
According to the latest Bloomberg Billionaires Index, Ronaldo’s net worth is now estimated at USD 1.4 billion, cementing his place among the global financial elite.
The 40-year-old’s financial empire reportedly reached billionaire levels earlier this year, driven largely by his record-breaking deal with Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr, valued at over USD 400 million.
Bloomberg further reports that between 2002 and 2023, Ronaldo has earned more than USD 550 million from salaries, endorsements, and business ventures.
Since his high-profile move from Manchester United to Al-Nassr in 2023, Ronaldo has held the title of the highest-paid footballer in history, earning an annual salary of £177 million, excluding bonuses and brand endorsements.
In true Ronaldo fashion, he continues to redefine what it means to be both a sports icon and a global business powerhouse.
