Despite that Ronaldo and Lionel Messi were in the last days of their careers, they still enjoy superb financial benefits from the round-leather game.

Both players are widely regarded as the two greatest footballers in the history of the game.

Ronaldo is at the top of Forbes latest list, earning a whopping $285m per year.

The 39-year-old earns $220m per-year in wages from Al-Nassr, while the rest comes from sponsorships.

Messi, on the other hand, is the only MLS player in the top ten list.

The Argentinean earns $135m in total, out of which $60m is from wages and $75m is earned from off-field sponsorships.

The list is heavily dominated by players in the Saudi Arabian league.

Others on the list, according to Sportskeeda.com, include Al-Hilal’s Neymar ($110m), Al-Ittihad’s Karim Benzema ($104m) and Al-Nassr’s Sadio Mane ($52m).
