Cristiano Ronaldo has earned an incredible amount of money since signing for Al Nassr at the very end of 2022.

Ronaldo sealed a dream return to Manchester United in 2021 and scored 24 goals in 38 games in his first season.

However his second stint ultimately ended on a sour note, following a fall-out with Erik ten Hag and highly controversial interview with Piers Morgan.

Ronaldo's comments, where he was critical of Ten hag's management and the facilities at the club, led to his deal being cancelled by mutual consent.

And while he wasn't short of offers, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner elected to leave Europe for Saudi Arabia and signed with Al Nassr.

The 39-year-old's wages are said to be around £177 million per year, making him the highest-paid footballer in the world

Broken down further, Real Madrid's record goalscorer takes home £3,403,846 per week.

He joined officially on 1 January and has earned around £329 million during his tenure in the Saudi Pro League, which now boasts a slew of other superstars like Neymar, Karim Benzema, Roberto Firmino and Riyad Mahrez.

Ronaldo has made 80 appearances for Al Nassr, scoring 73 times in all competitions.

In addition to his salary with Al Nassr, Ronaldo is also paid for endorsement deals with the likes of Nike and has a whole host of business ranging from hotels to fragrances and clothing.

In a fairly recent move, he launched his own YouTube channel, 'UR' in a bid to 'engage further with his global fanbase'.

Ronaldo's channel has uploaded 61 videos, varying from interviews to games with his other half Georgina Rodriguez.

The Portuguese superstar achieved unprecedented numbers from the get-go, racking up a whopping 65.3 million subscribers and half a billion views across his content.

Thinkific say YouTube creators can earn around $2 – $12 per 1,000 views or approximately $0.002 – $0.012 per view on YouTube and when you factor in ad revenue, Ronaldo is not doing too badly at all.
