The 2012/13 season might have been disappointing for Real Madrid, but it was a good season for Cristiano Ronaldo on a personal level. The Portugese forward scored 55 goals in 55 appearances in all competitions for Los Blancos, averaging a goal a game. However, his future at Real Madrid still seems uncertain as is yet to sign a new contract.

1) David Beckham

Vancouver Whitecaps v Los Angeles Galaxy

David Beckham

Salary/winnings: $5.2M

Total earnings: $47.5M

The former England captain and veteran footballer called time on a spectacular career last season, but not before adding the Ligue 1 title to his already impressive trophy cabinet. After leaving LA Galaxy, Beckham joined PSG on a 5-month contract and while his short career there was far from eventful, it was a good way to end a stellar career.
