Real Madrid to pay Cristiano Ronaldo €250,000 a week

The Spanish capital’s escort agencies won’t know what hit them

Cristiano Ronaldo

C-Ron is now so wealthy that he employs someone to ‘flip him from six to midnight’

According to our Spanish friends at Marca, Real Madrid are all set to make Cristiano Ronaldo the highest paid footballer of all time, by remunerating him with an annual salary of €13m. That works out at €250,000 every week, or in proper money, around £212,000 every seven days. Going even further, that’s nearly £1,300 per day, and £21 for every single minute.

C-Ron’s new deal will eclipse that of of Inter Milan’s big-stage-bottler Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who earns a paltry €12m per year. Also, it is nearly double the pay packet taken home by Madrid legend Raul.

In addition to his stupendous wage, the Portuguese star will also rake it in from image rights. In a similar deal to that which Florentino Perez struck with David Beckham, Ronaldo will receive a proportion of sales of all the official tat with his name on it. If fans buy enough Cristiano Ronaldo shirts, posters, action figures, radon detctors and eye wash stations etc., he could potentially double his income.
