Cristiano Ronaldo (Al-Nassr)
October 2025
Ronaldo has officially become the first footballer to reach billionaire status, with Bloomberg estimating his net worth at $1.4 billion following his lucrative contract extension with Al-Nassr. Already football’s most prolific goalscorer, the 40-year-old is now eyeing 1,000 career goals as his next landmark.
His new Al-Nassr deal, worth £178m annually plus a signing bonus, pushed him past the milestone, joining Federer, Woods, Jordan, and LeBron James in sport’s billionaire club. Despite family pressure to retire, Ronaldo insists he will play on and focus on Portugal’s World Cup push.
