Top 10 Richest Footballer In The World? by onuohajones30(m): 5:54am On Mar 17
The title of richest footballer in the world is interesting because the top spot is held by someone whose wealth comes primarily from family inheritance rather than football itself. Here's a breakdown of the top 10:

Faiq Bolkiah ($20 billion): A prince of Brunei, Bolkiah's staggering net worth comes from his royal lineage. While he currently plays professionally for Chonburi FC in Thailand, football isn't his main source of income.

Lionel Messi ($600 million): A true football legend, Messi has earned his wealth through a long and remarkable career. His high salary at Paris Saint-Germain is supplemented by lucrative endorsement deals and his own business ventures.

Cristiano Ronaldo ($500 million): Another footballing icon, Ronaldo's wealth follows a similar path to Messi's. His hefty salary with Al Nassr is boosted by endorsements and his various business investments.

David Beckham ($450 million): The former England captain has parlayed his football fame into a global brand, leading to lucrative endorsements and business opportunities beyond his playing days.

Dave Whelan ($210 million): Not a household name for many football fans, Whelan made his fortune in the retail sector before acquiring and chairing Blackburn Rovers for nearly two decades.

Neymar Jr. ($200 million): The Brazilian superstar's high salary at Paris Saint-Germain is bolstered by a massive endorsement portfolio that includes deals with Nike and many other brands.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic ($190 million): Zlatan's larger-than-life personality and exceptional talent have translated into a long and lucrative career across various top European clubs.

Kylian Mbappé ($180 million): Despite his young age, Mbappé has already established himself as one of the world's best players. His exceptional talent at Paris Saint-Germain has led to a hefty salary and a growing list of endorsement deals.

Wayne Rooney ($170 million): A Manchester United legend and former England captain, Rooney's career earnings are supplemented by endorsements and his current role as manager for DC United.

Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima ($160 million): Better known as Ronaldo (the original Ronaldo!), the Brazilian legend's incredible playing career has been followed by successful business ventures that continue to grow his wealth.
