Cristiano Ronaldo Salary and Wages
On the financial website Forbes On the list of highest-paid athletes of all time in a single year, only boxer Floyd Mayweather is bettered by Ronaldo, having earned an estimated $300 million (£226 million) in 2015 and $285 million (£214.5 million) in 2018.
Ronaldo was said to have surpassed $1bn (£771m) in career earnings two years before becoming the most high-profile footballer to move to Saudi Arabia, where he made his debut for Al-Nassr in January 2023.
It was widely reported that Ronaldo’s first deal with Al-Nassr was worth £14.75m per month or £3.4m per week. His annual salary was said to be £177m a year, made up of £62m of his football wages, plus commercial bonuses.

Cristiano Ronaldo contract
Ronaldo won the Saudi title for the first time last season, but failed to achieve the highest scores in the first division for the first time during his three seasons.
Shortly after Al-Nasr finished third in the 2025/26 season – 13 points behind Al-Ittihad – Ronaldo appeared to strongly hint on social media that he had played his final game for the club.
He agreed to a new contract exactly a month later, after scoring in the UEFA Nations League semi-final against Germany and the final against Spain.
He missed three matches in all competitions earlier this year, with Real Madrid’s all-time top goalscorer believed to be unhappy with Al Nasr’s lack of transfer activity.
