#2 Cristiano Ronaldo - Serie A
Well, as they say, the best things in the world command the highest value, so do the top football players in the world. As we reach the end of the list it should become pretty obvious that Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi will take the top two spots on our list.

Juventus forward Ronaldo, one of the highest earning athletes in the world for a brief period between 2016 and 2017, reportedly took a wage cut to join the Old Lady last summer, but still managed to be the highest paid football player in the Serie A, with a monthly wage of €4.7 million.
He enjoyed a fairly successful debut season with his new club and even lifted a second major silverware with his country in UEFA Nations League last month, so despite his age he is one of the top players out there and it's not at all surprising to see his name on top of this listing.
He makes the most of his incredible earnings and has an exquisite collection of top-end supercars that he flaunts from time to time on his social media posts.
