Ronaldo Journey to Manchester United

Sporting Lisbon first, then Manchester United, then Real Madrid and finally Juventus. After three years in Juventus, however, Cristiano Ronaldo has decided to change air in the queue for August, once the championship has begun. The Portuguese renounced the approximately 60 million gross salary paid by the Turin club to return to England, precisely in Manchester. First very close to Pep Guardiola's City , then definitively to United , as a prodigal son.

A return that set the market on fire again, after the historic farewell of Lionel Messi, who passed from Barcelona to Paris Saint Germain.

Cristiano Ronaldo at Manchester United, goodbye Juve: how much he earns in Turin
Cristiano Ronaldo became a Juventus player on 10 July 2018, bought by Real Madrid for 100 million euros (plus another 12 in ancillary costs): a figure that made him the most expensive purchase in the history of Serie A. It was also the highest paid player ever, in terms of salary and therefore salary, in our league: 31 million euros net per year , about 60 million euros gross. Crazy figures, which do not take into account sponsors and revenues via social networks (especially Instagram ).

It is difficult to calculate with certainty his net worth, which is in any case estimated at between € 230 million and € 290 million. According to Feedinco, Cristiano Ronaldo earned more than any other sportsman in 2017: $ 93 million, more than LeBron James (86) and Mbappe (80). In 2020, however, he had to settle for 3rd place (120 million dollars total), behind Lionel Messi (130 million dollars) and Conor McGregor (athlete symbol of martial arts: 180 million dollars).

Cristiano Ronaldo with Juventus scored 101 goals in 134 games . At Manchester United, where he played from summer 2003 to summer 2009, he had scored 118 goals in 292 competitive matches.

The Portuguese returns to Old Trafford for another three years, having signed a contract that will expire in 2024: he will earn 25 million euros net per season . A figure that sees him confirmed among the highest paid players in the world, even if a little less than in the period in Juventus.

Statistics

Cristiano Ronaldo is the greatest footballer ever, according to a study by a leading maths professor at the University of Oxford . The scholar has compiled a list of the ten best players of all time considering seven different factors:  club goals, club titles, international goals, international titles, Ballon d'Or awards, individual records and "z-factor seasons" that have been assigned for particularly decisive seasons such as that of Ronaldo who scored 17 goals in the 2013-14 Champions League.  In his video launched by LiveScore that explains the process, Dr. Crawford first narrowed down the potential top ten by considering only those who have won the Ballon d'Or at least twice . He then had 13 players left to whom he then applied the seven categories to find a definitive top ten. And it was Ronaldo who excelled in the standings with a score of 537 out of a maximum of 700, 34 ahead of the legend of Barcelona and Argentina  Messi. Maradona is surprisingly in ninth position.

 

Cristiano Ronaldo took the top spot thanks to his incredible statistics regarding club titles, international goals and individual records, with Dr. Crawford awarding him a "GOAT index score [greatest of all time]" of 100% ahead of Messi's 94. The Portuguese superstar recently broke  the men's international goal record  with his brace against the Republic of Ireland, bringing his tally to 111. In third place is Brazilian legend Pele , with Hungarian Ferenc Puskas in fourth. . The Brazilian Ronaldo completes the top five, followed by Marco van Basten and Alfredoof Stefano. Frenchman Michel Platini in  eighth place. As mentioned, Maradona in ninth place and Dutch icon Johan Cruyff to finish the top ten.
