Per reports, the cost of Ronaldo's shirt alone is £955, while the trouser retails for another £855. The steep price tag might not concern football's first billion-dollar athlete, who according to Forbes, earned £91 million in 2020, second only to his arch-rival, Lionel Messi. In 2020, the 35-year-old made $60 million in salary, while he pocketed another $45 million from his numerous endorsement deals. The five-time Ballon d'Or is estimated to have a net worth of more than $500 million (£388 million).
Despite what his expression might suggest, Cristiano Ronaldo appears to be rejuvenated for the start of the 19th season in his professional career. Earlier this month, the 35-year-old scored his 100th international goal - becoming only the second man in history to reach the milestone - with a stunning free-kick against Sweden in the Nations League. He went on to score his 101st goal in the match, helping Portugal to a 2-0 win.
Ronaldo was on target this past Sunday, scoring the opener in Juventus' 5-0 friendly win over Novara. The Old Lady will kickstart their new campaign this Sunday, hosting Sampdoria in Serie A.
