Ace footballer Cristiano Ronaldo has achieved another milestone, but this time off the field. The legendary Portuguese forward has become the first active footballer billionaire, as reported by the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
The prolific athlete, already the highest-paid player in football, saw a significant rise in his fortune following a lucrative contract extension with Saudi Pro League team Al Nassr, valued at over $400 million.
Bloomberg attributes his enhanced wealth to this tax-free contract, alongside major endorsement deals with brands such as Armani and Nike, which have substantially contributed to his financial success.
