As football witnesses a notable boost in financial indicators with FIFA expecting the football-generated revenue to go up to $11 billion, fans could not help but wonder to what extent the players have reaped the benefits of such monetary inundation in the sports.
The sport features a handful of “power couples” — both with regards to fame and net worth — with the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez, David and Victoria Beckham, Lionel Messi and Antonela Roccuzzo, and others.
With the players and their partners battling to be crowned as the football’s richest couple, it comes as no surprise that the top spot is secured by none other than David and Victoria who have a whopping net worth of around £412.1 million.
The Beckhams’ impressive net worth comes due to David’s lucrative deals such as a lifetime contract with Adidas coupled with Victoria’s own clothing brand, reported goal.com citing Gambling Zone.
The English couple is trailed by Ronaldo and Georgina with a net worth of around £410.5 million after the former inked the world’s biggest football contract when he joined the Saudi club Al Nassr.
In the third spot, we have Messi and his wife Antonela, who have a reported net worth of around £182 million and are closely followed by former English footballer Wayne Rooney and his wife Coleen with £181 million net worth — courtesy of the former’s role as Birmingham City FC’s manager.
Furthermore, the couple have also starred in their own documentary.
Meanwhile, the fifth richest couple in football is Spanish footballer Sergio Ramos and his partner Pilar Rubio with a £120.2 million net worth.
