Dearest friends
Real Madrid footballer Cristiano Ronaldo earns more than any
other sportsperson, as per Forbes' annual world’s wealthiest athletes list.
With Mayweather retiring and Woods not playing because of
injury, the Portugal captain has risen to the top.
He earned 88m USD from salary, bonuses and endorsements last
year….
Ronaldo, 31, is only the second team sport athlete, after
basketball superstar Michael Jordan, to have topped the list since Forbes began
tracking earnings in 1990.
His off-pitch earnings of $32m include a $13m-a-year deal
with sportswear firm Nike - which has partnerships with half of the top 100
stars.
The three-time world player of the year's most significant
football rival, Barcelona and Argentina forward Lionel Messi, is second on the
list with earnings of $81.4m earned last year.
Third in the list comes the basketball player LeBron James,
the Number 23 of Cleveland Cavaliers earnings reached 77.2m USD last year.
Have a great day.
