Love or loathe them, there\u2019s no getting away from the fact that the best soccer players<\/a> are paid astronomical sums. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They can also boost their earnings by performing well at major tournaments, like this year\u2019s FIFA World Cup in Qatar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If Argentina claim the trophy, Lionel Messi will reportedly make an extra 20% on his already lofty salary thanks to additional endorsements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it\u2019s not just\ncurrent players that make the big bucks. Legends (and average players) from\nyesteryear can also pull in big money after retirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below we\u2019ve listed the\ntop 10 richest soccer players of all time and how much their estimated net\nworth is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. Alexandre Pato – $145 Million<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Alexandre

Many might be surprised\nto find Alexandre Pato on this list. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After all, he didn\u2019t\nexactly set world football alight, unlike many others on this list. The\noverriding memory for many fans is that Pato fell way short of his potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He spent several years\nof his career at AC Milan before moving to numerous other clubs and now plays\nfor Orlando City in the MLS. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

His current salary for\nCity ($200,000 per month) doesn\u2019t compare to the highest-paid players in the\nworld. Still, he has had lucrative contracts in the past, including in China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pato was also a popular figure in Brazil, especially when he was younger, so he secured plenty of high-level endorsements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. Ronaldo – $160 Million<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Ronaldo\"

The first Ronaldo on our\nlist (no prizes for guessing the other) is a true legend of modern soccer and\nwas part of the iconic Brazil team that won the World Cup in 2002. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The double Ballon d\u2019Or\nwinner was one of the most recognizable faces in the game by the late 90s, and\nin 1996, he signed a life-changing contract with Nike. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Allegedly worth $180\nmillion, the deal between Ronaldo and Nike made him one of the world\u2019s richest\nsports stars and he\u2019s still among the wealthiest soccer players today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

$180 million might seem\nlike a lot for Nike to have paid, but shortly after signing the Brazilian, the\ncompany designed the Mercurial R9 soccer boot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ronaldo wore the boots\nat France 98, where he was voted best player, and the Mercurial became one of\nthe most famous soccer cleats in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Zlatan Ibrahimovi\u0107 \u2013 $190\nMillion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Zlatan
Image: Wikimedia Commons<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Next up: Zlatan!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has been one of the\nmost exciting strikers in the world over the past 15 years, and nobody knows\nthis more than Zlatan himself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He\u2019s played for teams\nworldwide, including Barcelona, Manchester United, LA Galaxy, PSG, and now AC\nMilan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite being 40 years\nold, Zlatan is still AC Milan\u2019s highest-paid player, earning \u20ac7 million ($8.3\nmillion) per year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has also worked with\nbrands such as Nike, Volvo, and Nivea, further boosting his fortune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Neymar – $200 Million<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Neymar
Image: Wikimedia Commons<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Next up is another\nBrazilian: Neymar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was the most\nexpensive player of all time when PSG splashed the cash to bring him to Paris\nin a deal worth \u20ac222 million ($261.5 million).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before heading to\nFrance, he was a key part of the Barcelona attack alongside Lionel Messi and\nLuis Suarez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you might expect,\nNeymar receives a substantial salary at PSG, taking home around $42.5 million\nper year, which is about $817,000 per week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sponsorships are also\nplentiful, with the Brazilian having deals in place with Puma, Red Bull, and\nmore. These sponsorships amount to about $25 million per year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Dave Whelan – $220 Million<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Dave
Image: Dan Farrimond\/Wikipedia<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Unless you are a keen\nfollower of English soccer, you probably haven\u2019t heard of Dave Whelan. You may\nbe surprised to see his name on the list, even if you are. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whelan made nearly 200\nEnglish football league appearances between 1956 and 1966 and was even an FA\nCup runner-up with Blackburn Rovers in 1960.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I know what you\u2019re\nthinking\u2026 Soccer players\u2019 salaries weren\u2019t great back then, were they? No,\ndefinitely not. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But when he retired,\nWhelan moved into business with tremendous success. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This eventually led to\nhim buying Wigan Athletic Football Club in 1995. Under his ownership, the team\nreached the Premier League and won the FA cup in 2013. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All good things come to\nthose who wait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. David Beckham – $400 Million<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"David
Image: Twitter\/Footy_Quotesx<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

David Beckham being\nnamed one of the richest soccer players in the world will come as a shock to\nabsolutely no one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unless you\u2019ve been\nliving under a rock for the past couple of decades, you will have noticed just\nhow many sponsorships deals the former England captain has.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGolden Balls\u201d counts\nAdidas, Pepsi, Konami, Haig Club, Samsung, Maserati, and Jaguar among his\nsponsors, but the list doesn\u2019t end there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also earned an exceptional salary as a player, having played for Manchester United and Real Madrid – two of the best soccer teams of all time<\/a>. He also earned a total of $50 million across five years <\/a>at LA Galaxy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

David Beckham isn\u2019t just\nall about the money, though. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He is also an ambassador\nfor UNICEF and founder of the charity Malaria No More UK. Good on you, Becks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Lionel Messi \u2013 $400 Million<\/strong><\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Lionel
Image: Wikimedia Commons<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Number four on the list\nof richest soccer players is Lionel Messi. He spent most of his career at the\nCamp Nou, becoming an icon to Barcelona fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, he switched\nteams in 2021, heading to PSG to join Neymar and Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 (the player with\nthe highest yearly salary). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Messi is seen by many as\nthe greatest player of all time, although the next player on this list might\nargue with that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He\u2019s unsurprisingly one\nof the world\u2019s highest-paid soccer stars, reportedly being paid around $859,000\nper week. He also pocketed a $29.5 million signing-on fee when moving to PSG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you might expect,\nbrands are clamoring to be associated with Messi, and he has deals with Adidas,\nPepsi, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Cristiano Ronaldo \u2013 $450 Million<\/strong><\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Cristiano
Image: Wikimedia Commons<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Next on the list is\nCristiano Ronaldo \u2013 a man who rivals Messi for the tag of the greatest player\never. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now back at Manchester\nUnited, the former five-time Ballon d\u2019Or winner\u2019s influence may be waning on\nthe pitch, but commercially he\u2019s still elite. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, Ronaldo earns\naround \u00a3500,000 ($691,000) per week in England \u2013 a figure seen as a great deal\nby many fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Along with Messi, he is\nthe most marketable figure in soccer and has numerous deals, including ones\nwith Nike and Tag Heuer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This promotional pulling\npower is one of the reasons Ronaldo sits third on our list and has an estimated\nnet worth of nearly half a billion dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Mathieu Flamini – $14 Billion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Mathieu
Image: joshjdss\/Wikipedia<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Former France\ninternational Mathieu Flamini had a very good, if not glittering, career\ncompared to some of his colleagues on this list. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The no-nonsense\nmidfielder undoubtedly made millions of dollars across his playing career,\nwhere he played for some of Europe\u2019s elite clubs, including Arsenal and Milan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it was after hanging\nup his boots that Flamini really made it to the big time financially. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He is the co-founder of\na company called GF Biochemicals, which became the world\u2019s first company to\nmass-produce levulinic acid. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This acid is made from\nwaste wood, can replace oil in a range of products, and was named by the U.S.\nDepartment of Energy as \u201cone of the 12 molecules that can help unlock a\n\u201cgreener\u201d world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GF Biochemicals has\nalready made the world a better place and has an estimated valuation of around\n$25 billion, so hats off to you, Mathieu! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And people say that\nsoccer players aren\u2019t smart\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Faiq Bolkiah – $20 Billion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"
Image: The Mirror<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

The name Faiq Bolkiah\nmay not ring a bell, even if you\u2019re a soccer fan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the Sultan of\nBrunei is famously wealthy, and this happens to be his nephew. Faiq Bolkiah is\nthe son of the Prince of Brunei and has an estimated net worth of $20 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A former Southampton,\nChelsea, and Leicester City youth player, Faiq now plays for Chonburi in Thai\nLeague 1. He is also a full Bruneian international and has represented his\ncountry six times, scoring once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can\u2019t imagine his\nwages are as high as some of the other players on this list, but he probably\ndoesn\u2019t worry about that too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
