Gareth Bale is the leader of Real Madrid's team now.

Gareth Bale has a net worth of $125 million and that puts him into the sixth place of this list. The Welsh winger earns a hefty $465,000 weekly at Real Madrid, and after Ronaldo's departure this summer, he became the highest paid player at Santiago Bernabeu.

In addition to his annual salary, Bale earns around $9 million per year from endorsements. He has become an integral part of Adidas’ marketing plans. Apart from them, Bale has also signed sponsorship deals with companies like Nissan, Konami and Foot Locker.
