On September 15 of 2013,Cristiano Ronaldosigned anew contractwithReal
Madrid, which will link him with the club until 2018. The deal
extended his previous 2009contractfor 3 more years, since it was set

made ofRonaldothehighest paid footballerin Spain (Lionel Messi most
recent contractallows him to earn 16 million euros and he's currently
number 2 on that list).
After having signed withReal Madridin 2009,Cristiano Ronaldobecame one
of the highest paid soccer players in the World, with a transfer
buyout clause of 1 billion euros (release clause). We researched on
several publications regarding football players wages and overall
earnings (including sponsorships deals). The data is unequivocal
asCristiano Ronaldois clearly one of the richest football players in
the World.
According to a Portuguese source named "Futebol Finance", who
publishes a list of the highest paid football players every
year,Cristiano Ronaldowas ranked #1 in 2011, with amonthly salaryof 1
million euros (1.000.000 euros ~ 1.430.000 US dollars ~ 882.000
British pounds). In terms of monthly salaries, thePortugueseplayer is
followed by Barcelona'sLionel Messi("La Pulga") who earns amonthly
salaryof 875.000 euros (~ 1.251.000 US dollars ~ 772.000 British
pounds) and Chelsea'sFernando Torres("El Niño") who gets amonthly
salaryof 833.000 euros (~ 1.191.000 US dollars ~ 735.000 British

As you may see below, Barcelona is the only club in the World which
puts 5 players in the top 20 highest paid football players list. If we
sum those 5 players wages (Lionel Messi,Xavi,Andres Iniesta,David
VillaandDaniel Alves), we notice that Barcelona is spending around
3.250.000 euros monthly (3 million and 250 million euros ~ 4.647.500
US Dollars ~ 2.867.000 British pounds), in wages for those 5 key
players. That's an interesting curiosity as there seems to be a myth
that the big spenders are always Real Madrid, Chelsea or Manchester
City, but it turns out to be that Barcelona is actually leading in the
aggregated analysis, when considering exclusively the top 20 list.
