Cristiano Ronaldo

In the early stage of the recent season, it appeared that Ronaldo was past his prime due to his below par performances. However, the Portuguese humbled his critics in a glorious fashion by netting 44 goals in 43 matches in all competition this past season.

The Real Madrid megastar has a total earning of $108m which is a result of $61m salary and $47m from endorsements.

The 33-year-old dropped a bombshell after the Champions League final by casting doubts on his future at the club, which many have billed as a blackmail with the aim of forcing an increase in his salary.

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner has deals with Nike, Herbalife, EA Sports and American Tourister, along with a growing line of CR7 branded products.
